Thanks MadeinGermany,
I have fixed it by editing sendmail.mc and making a new sendmail.cf : Just add the DS line as you want it to appear in sendmail.cf
I didn't set this up (I'm fairly new here) and since the Exchange server is a Windows server, it's looked after by the Windows team.
I couldn't put multiple entries in /etc/hosts for outlook.fqdn.uk with multiple IP addresses, which is why I needed another way to tell sendmail where the mail server was.
Code:
# nslookup -q=mx mailhost.fqdn.uk
Server:         10.10.0.35
Address:        10.10.0.35#53

*** Can't find mailhost.fqdn.uk: No answer

# nslookup -q=mx outlook.fqdn.uk
Server:         10.10.0.35
Address:        10.10.0.35#53

*** Can't find outlook.fqdn.uk: No answer

I found the procedure on an oracle docs webpage (I'm not allowed to post URLs Smilie ) but I wouldn't have found it without the hints and tips in this thread.
Thanks to all who contributed. Smilie
