Your subject header says "bookworm stable".  You don't install binary
packages from testing on a stable system.  You use backports instead.

https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/

There is already a bookworm backported version of sendmail available:

https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=sendmail&searchon=names&section=all&suite=bookworm-backports

If that one isn't new enough, then you may need to build your own backport
package.  This is usually either trivially easy ("type these commands")
or utterly impossible, depending on which dependencies have changed
since bookworm.  There's no in-between.
