Odd sendmail problem.

I've got sendmail installed from the repository, but it refuses to
listen on an outside interface. Everything seems to work fine from
localhost, netstat -a shows that the system is listening, but I can't
connect from the outside at all to the machine, from anywhere. Anyone
have any ideas where to start looking?
