It means that someone (probably you or a program you were running since it's from localhost) connected to sendmail (probably on TCP port 25) on your machine, but then disconnected before issuing any commands. You can generate the message again by doing "telnet localhost 25" and then typing ^] and quit without typing anything over the connection. Probably the result of a port scan or connectivity check. I wouldn't worry about it unduly.
