Actually, I believe you need to run the sendmail.mc file through the m4
macro to make any changes to the sendmail.cf file:

m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/mail/sendmail.cf

Then you can restart the sendmail service to make the changes take effect.
Of course, I would back-up the existing sendmail.cf file before doing
anything.  ;)
