It is only a small part of the solution. For example if you do not specify 'no default msa' feature it is not going to work.

I find that to enable submission access on port 587 in sendmail, I need to ensure the following are both set in sendmail.mc:
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp, Name=MTA')dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=submission, Name=MSA, M=Ea')dnl
Then do:
m4 sendmail.mc > sendmail.cf service sendmail restart
