Apache doesn't usually use tcpwrappers. Even if it did, you have it
commented out. Doh!

As for sendmail, assuming it's compiled for tcpwrappers, you should
probably be using a name that matches the name of the running process.
It may not be "sendmail"; it could be "smtpd," or something else
entirely.

You really need to take a closer look at "man 5 hosts_access" as well as
the documentation in Apache and Sendmail regarding access control.
