The relevant portion till 2.13 helps you setup sendmail quickly.

for not very complicated setup RH docs may be enough:

Shalom,

There are serious issues with regard to abuse of the sendmail setup if exposed to the public Internet and if the same system runs websites.

The best resource for this is http://www.sendmail.org

They have everything you need to validate the system.
