I guess you want to sent emails accross your local domain .
You mean that you have a DNS Server setup at 192.168.1.4 while
your MTA ( Mail Transfer Agent ) , the machine that runs sendmail
at 192.168.1.112

Well when you sent emails accross the local domain you don't need
MX records . The MX records are looked for whenever you want to sent
an email to a remote host ( a machine outside your domain ) .

Indeed as the previous poster said it is the sendmail.mc
( If you have a sendmail version  8.12.* then it is the 
/etc/mail/sendmail.mc ) file that needs to be setup properly .
If you have the *.tar.gz file untar it and then go to the
/doc/op/ directory and  "make op.txt" then open op.txt with
your favourite editor and look for local mail .
