The sendmail license (http://www.sendmail.org/ftp/LICENSE) is not currently listed in the "Good licenses" list, nor is it listed on the FSF "list of licenses" page. However, sendmail *is* listed in the FSF directory of free software (http://directory.fsf.org/sendmail.html).
Please can the sendmail license be added to the good licenses list?
Believe it or not, this license is still pending review from the FSF since the first time you asked. :/
Answer:
Free, and GPL compatible as long as the copyright holder is Eric Allman, Sendmail Inc, or the University of California.
That's an interesting restriction. Is there a story hidden behind it?
