Sendmail/alpine not sending mail on newly installed FC9. Incoming messages

Any pointers short of trying to wade thru the *choke* sendmail
configuration file?

by default, sendmail only listens to localhost (127.0.0.1) so if you set
up anything other than localhost as SMTP server in ~/.pinerc - you would
have to configure /etc/mail/sendmail.mc (read the comments), then
restart sendmail.
I have no idea why but after 3 attempts to send a test message to myself
the fourth attempt was successful (after I posted my question...of
course).
Thanks for your reply.
