Hi,

You must configure sendmail. In the configuration file /etc/sendmail.cf, the line with DS must be modified and you must specified your mail server.
You can add this server in the file /etc/host.

After the modification of your sendmail configuration, you restart the service :
# refresh -s sendmail
or
# stopsrc -s sendmail
# startsrc -s sendmail -a "-bd"

To have a complete solution for debug, you can add this line in /etc/syslog.conf :
mail.debug /var/log/mail/maillog rotate size 200k files 4

And :
# refresh -s syslogd
