You were given a list of things to check (/etc/hostname, /etc/hosts) and
instead of letting us know the findings you say "it's not working".

That's a bit frustrating.

So instead of troubleshooting just do this:

Edit /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and add the following line at the end:

define(`confDOMAIN_NAME', `mail.yourdomain.com')dnl

Replace mail.yourdomain.com with the hostname as which Sendmail should
advertise itself.

Save the changes. Then rebuild the sendmail.cf:

cd /etc/mail
make all
/sbin/service sendmail restart

And your hostname with which Sendmail announces itself during HELO/EHLO
will be hotwired to the one you specified in the config.
