Multiple mail domains, single machine

I have a single machine connected to the internet 24/7, and configured as a Sendmail mail server for a domain, say a.com. I would like to configure it as a mail server for another domain, say a.org. The problem is that I must have different accounts for each of the two domains. In other words, I would like to have the option of making an account k@a.com without an account k@a.org working, and vice versa.
I don't know if virtual hosting can do this.

My machine can use two IP's to appear as two servers to the world..
Can this be done?

Thanks jlevie, your answer is the thing I need and the guess is quite right.
Where can I find an good introductory how-to/ tutorial on these?
The references that I cited above are the most complete and accurate documents that I know of. Of course the definitive reference on sendmail is the Sendmail book by O'Rielly, but one would hardly call that an introductory reference. There is some information in the Linux HowTo's also (http://howto.tucows.com/). If, after reading through the documentation above you have specific qurestions, I'd be most willing to try to answer those questions.
