Unfortunately, I don't know much about Sendmail (I prefer Postfix, thank 
you very much ;-).

If sendmail is running, does the log show that your mail has been received?

Could you please confirm that Sendmail is indeed listening on your ip 
address and not only on localhost?

netstat -antp | grep ":25"

Try to send a mail at the commandline on your server using "mail" or /usr 
/sbin/sendmail".

Also if a mails is received, does Sendmail try to deliver the mail to Cyrus?

Can you deliver the message manually with the deliver command?

cat /some/example_mail | deliver -a cyrus -m user.cargnini

Does such a mail appear in Cyrus?

you can delete CRAM-MD5 and DIGEST-MD5 from the list, saslauthd does not 
support shared-secret mechanisms.

Aside from that your Cyrus configuration looks fine.
