Other requirements:
 - Must run on Solaris

And other remarks:
 - Will only check if sendmail package is installed

I would call it check_sendmail_installed_solaris so it is more specific to
what it can and can not check.

My first assumption was a SMTP check to verify you have a sendmail
server and perhaps check additional SMTP features. It is a local test and
not a remote test.
