Note that you won't be able to do the MAPS RBL unless you've paid for it.
Personally, I don't like the idea of anyone basing their business on
stopping spam, since that gives them an incentive to CONTINUE spam. Do some
blacklist shopping first. No, DNSBLs are not turned on by default, and
rightly so, IMHO.

Anyway, your question: you'll probably find your original sendmail.mc in

/usr/lib/sendmail-cf/cf/cobalt.mc

I copied that file to another name (myname.mc for example), made my edits,
and m4'd it. You may need to do some trial and error with paths to get m4 to
read it correctly.

Note that you'll still need to do some manual tweaking of the resulting .cf
file to avoid breaking some things. See Charlie's post (which I seem to cite
excessively often) at
<http://list.cobalt.com/pipermail/cobalt-users/2001-August/049269.html> for
details.
