A much better way to do this...

#cd /etc/mail
#cp freebsd.mc `hostname`.mc	# unless `hostname` fails :(
#make install

Read the Makefile for details. Editing the cf file is bad karma.

sendmail.cw is depreciated, and has been for some time. The file is
now called local-host-names. See /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/README
