So you can have multiple daemonportoption lines, and sendmail will accept connections from both? 
Thanks!

Ah! In my fiery wrath towards all things telopoly (When their lease expired on
Hell, all the demons immigrated to Earth and then created AT&T because they
were homesick) I jumped to a conclusion.

See
O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA
in /etc/sendmail.cf? Yep. Add another line like that with the address you want
it to listen to (leave the 127.0.0.1 line intact).

P.S. "netstat -ap" would have told you senmail wasn't listening on your NIC.
