Do you just want this server to send mail out? If so:
in /etc/mail/sendmail.mc:
find this line:
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl
put a dnl in front of it and restart sendmail
to test run this echo "this is a test" |mail -s "test" <emailaddress>
Or do you want it to serve as a SMTP server for multiple systems?
