Sendmail is the most complicated MTA (in terms of configuration) around today - you're not going to get a one-size-fits-all solution in a forum post.

Anyway, you really need to find a good tutorial (Google for "Sendmail tutorial" or similar). If you are just setting up an SMTP gateway search for "Sendmail smart host".

Cheers
ZB

To relay through smtp, using the default sendmail configuration, you can just create a mailhosts entry in /etc/hosts. Otherwise find the lines:

Code:
# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DSmailhost$?m.$m$.

in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf and update as appropriate.

Note also that I only suggest this for such a simple change, it is not really the correct way to configure sendmail.
