On many servers one can start sendmail or postfix service to send log messages to recipient email address. But such emails are sent from root@localhost or just root or root@localhost4.localdomain4 among others. All these domains and names would normally get rejected by sendmail. To accept such emails following features can be enabled in '/etc/mail/sendmail.mc' 

FEATURE(`accept_unqualified_senders')dnl
FEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains')dnl

One can learn about these and other sendmail configuration options at http://www.sendmail.com/sm/open_source/docs/m4/features.html
