Fedora is a System V Linux. So service starts and stops are handled by
init script in the different runlevels. To switch off a service like
Sendmail it would be managed by

chkconfig sendmail off

chkconfig --list sendmail --> will show you then that Sendmail is off in
all runlevels

Be aware that you won't get any longer notification mails! Like useful
for logwatch and other things. The "problem" with Sendmail start is very
certainly a DNS problem. I recommend to fix that and not to switch off
the MTA which btw. is by default only listening locally.
