Homer,

I've lost track of what's going on here. What is your current status and 
problem? Are you sure it's not a network issue (firewall, router, ISP 
blocking the port, etc.)? Try also taking a look at the "Sendmail SMTP AUTH 
HOWTO" on my website [1]. While the concept is not exactly what you want, 
the steps shown for enabling receive from the network should work for you.

Only note that the sendmail.mc included there shows this line:
    * define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A')dnl
In reality, the Fedora installation of Sendmail has `A p' instead. Remember 
to remove the "p" or else it won't work; this is an error which I have 
regrettably not fixed yet in the document.

Cheers,
