There's no such tool available I'm afraid. Don't touch linuxconf with a
bargepole. It was included in (much) older RH distros and make them into
open relays.

You need to install the sendmail-cf package, read the configuration
README and edit /etc/mail/sendmail.mc with your favourite editor.

Having said that, the default configuration works out of the box for
many people.
