ronald warsow told me that a test for sendmail config is: sendmail -d0 < /dev/null indeed, in my case the output was incomplete, it has no fqdn there.however, fixing /etc/hosts did not solve the problem. i searched deeper and i've found the problem in /etc/sysconfig/network fixing the latter file fixed sendmail start even if /etc/hosts was left unfixed.thank you all for help.
And what have you fixed there? Thomas
