#define MAXDAEMONS 10 /* max number of ports to listen to */

This is causing failures when trying to start:

/etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 285: too many daemons defined (10 max)

I'm running MTA, MSA, and MSASSL daemons on localhost and my primary
interface. With the addition of IPv6, this pushes me to 12 combinations
of listeners.

I suggest raising this seemingly arbitrary limit to much larger.
