sendmail tries to resolve all of your interfaces at startup (in daemon
mode) in order to build an initial Cw

You can try to add your host in /etc/hosts if it's not there already.
Another, ugly, option would be to remove the initial resolving which
is done in daemon.c (IIRC).  Make sure you build your own Cw if you
do this.
