No, I want it to work the way sendmail.org released it.

That's very strange. I did find the DAEMON_OPTIONS line, commented it,
rebuilt sendmail.cf *with no other modification* and restarted sendmail.
What's strange is that the host does receive mail from other hosts, and
that it has passed several open-relay tests, both local and third-party.
Once again, allowing incoming SMTP traffic DOES NOT require open-relay
configuration. Period.
