No, but its not a difficult problem.  

  1) Don't use Sendmail.  Use Exim or Postfix.  Far easier, better
  configs, documentation, performance, security history etc.

  2) Configure the MTA to accept mail for your domain, but don't
  configure it so that it considers itself the final destination for
  that domain.

  3) Configure the MTA to use your internal host as a smarthost.

  4) Done.
