You probably already are. Sendmail listens on port 25 when it's running, which is the worlds agreed to email port. The issue will be, can you be found in the world's DNS by a name that sendmail is answering for. If not, it will sit there and listen to port 25 forever.

I try to explain my situation:
We have a HSDL ,a static IP, and a mail.myserver.it associated to the IP.
We can give space and domains and ftp
Now we want to give e-mails to remote user and they should send and receive mails with my mail server.

I have tried to test sendmail with webmin but i am newbie with it? How can I create users, where can i post and receive mails...?
thank
