As Paul already pointed out, it is very important to keep the localhost
mapping entry in the file. Seems you erased it completely. So readd it:

127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain   localhost

Set HOSTNAME= in /etc/sysconfig/network to be something like
"webcomp.home.locallan". Then adjust the corresponding line in
/etc/hosts to be

192.168.1.2       webcomp.home.locallan     webcomp

Sendmail will be lucky again using 192.168.1.2 as your static IP.

I added the required line and now its working perfectly. Thanks a  lot
for the help. I don't know how it is deleted because I never touched
the files myself. I used the "Network Configuration" grapical tool and
I can't remember deleting any entries there?

Thanks again  :-)
