Sendmail needs to do DNS lookups to canonicalize the address before it can determine whether the address is local or not.
the hosts file is not enough?
I see query to redhat.com for MX when messages is from fedora list.

This is to verify that redhat.com is a real domain and not some bogus domain name made up by a spammer.

But I think that query should be for my account and so for my MX.

It should be looking that up too. A hosts file entry is not sufficient because a hosts file cannot specify MX records for mail delivery.
