You should really follow the instructions, and build world :)

This won't work either, if you don't have an old libsm library lying
around in /usr/obj/usr/src/lib/libsm, and even in that case you should
probably rebuild libsm anyway.

The sendmail installation that is part of the base system uses libsm.a
which is not built when you cd into /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail, but is
built separately from /usr/src/lib/libsm. The same libsm.a that is
built as part of the buildworld process is then used to link sendmail
and src/bin/rmail.
The manual way out of this error that is stopping you is to build a
clean copy of libsm.a and then rebuilt sendmail and rmail:
# cd /usr/src/lib/libsm
# make cleandir && make cleandir
# make obj && make depend && make all
# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail
# make cleandir && make cleandir
# make obj && make depend && make all
# cd /usr/src/bin/rmail
# make cleandir && make cleandir
# make obj && make depend && make all
All these steps and many more[1] will be taken care of if you use the
recommended `make buildworld' procedure for upgrading.
I hope this helps a bit,
Giorgos.
[1] Such as building the proper bits for the SSL support when this is
required, and making sure that the changes to the libraries you have
compiled don't cause build problems to the rest of the `world'.
