You are right, that Sendmail on Fedora is configured to this by default.
But the error message is clear. "Relaying denied" can only come up then,
if the MTA at all accepts incoming connections, else the host would
simply reject the connection attempt because nothing is listening on
port 25.

For the "Relaying denied" topic see i.e.

http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/relayingdenied.html
