The .mc file can be found at /usr/lib/sendmail-cf/redhat.mc.  You can re-build the sendmail.cf file from this source by:

cd /usr/lib/sendmail-cf
/usr/bin/m4 redhat.mc >> /root/sendmail.cf.new

but be careful because any custom changes will be lost.  i'd suggest running a diff on your current /etc/sendmail.cf before overwriting it.  the line certain to be missing from the newly created .cf file is:

O AliasFile=/etc/aliases.majordomo

which will completely break majordomo if it is missing.  sorry, but i don't know any specifics related to ETRN on the raq2, but it should be no problem to add the FEATURE(mailertable) line and re-build the configuration to find out.  please let us know the results if you do try it.
