I notice that my relay on sendmail.cf is just "DS" and no ip. So I guess, it's using the local DNS to relay my mail which sometimes being spammed. I would like to add a new relay ip "DSxxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" on sendmail.cf.

Mail::Transport::Sendmail(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mail::Transport::Sendmail(3pm)
NAME
Mail::Transport::Sendmail - transmit messages using external Sendmail program
INHERITANCE
Mail::Transport::Sendmail
is a Mail::Transport::Send
is a Mail::Transport
is a Mail::Reporter
SYNOPSIS
my $sender = Mail::Transport::Sendmail->new(...);
$sender->send($message);
DESCRIPTION
Implements mail transport using the external 'Sendmail' program. When instantiated, the mailer will look for the binary in specific system
directories, and the first version found is taken.
Some people use Postfix as MTA. Postfix can be installed as replacement for Sendmail: is provides a program with the same name and
options. So, this module supports postfix as well.
METHODS
Constructors
Mail::Transport::Sendmail->new(OPTIONS)
-Option --Defined in --Default
executable Mail::Transport undef
hostname Mail::Transport 'localhost'
interval Mail::Transport 30
log Mail::Reporter 'WARNINGS'
password Mail::Transport undef

interval => SECONDS

port => INTEGER
proxy => PATH
retry => NUMBER|undef
sendmail_options => ARRAY
Add to the command-line of the started sendmail MTU a list of separate words. So say " [ '-f', $file ] " and not " [ "-f $file" ] ",
because the latter will be taken by sendmail as one word only.

DIAGNOSTICS
Error: Errors when closing sendmail mailer $program: $!
The was no problem starting the sendmail mail transfer agent, but for some specific reason the message could not be handled correctly.
Warning: Message has no destination
It was not possible to figure-out where the message is intended to go to.
Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not implement this method where it should. This message means that
some other related classes do implement this method however the class at hand does not. Probably you should investigate this and
probably inform the author of the package.
Warning: Resent group does not specify a destination
The message which is sent is the result of a bounce (for instance created with Mail::Message::bounce()), and therefore starts with a
"Received" header field. With the "bounce", the new destination(s) of the message are given, which should be included as "Resent-To",
"Resent-Cc", and "Resent-Bcc".
The "To", "Cc", and "Bcc" header information is only used if no "Received" was found. That seems to be the best explanation of the
RFC.
As alternative, you may also specify the "to" option to some of the senders (for instance Mail::Transport::SMTP::send(to) to overrule
any information found in the message itself about the destination.
