"netbsd-proto.mc" is the one used to generate the "sendmail.cf" shipped
with the base system, so you'll probably want to start with that.

By the way, I like to keep my ".mc" file in "/etc/mail". If you replace

  include(`../m4/cf.m4')

with

  define(`_CF_DIR_',`/usr/share/sendmail/')
  include(`/usr/share/sendmail/m4/cf.m4')

you can run "m4 foo > sendmail.cf" from any directory.
