That's a large part of the trouble I'll bet.  To generate sendmail.cf
from sendmail.m4 you need to install the sendmail-cf rpm (package is
as in rpm package in the error message).  Without this your changes to
sendmail.m4 don't do anything.

yum install sendmail-cf and then try the make command again.  If that
proceeds without error, restart sendmail and see if that changes
things.
