Configuring Sendmail

Hi,

I am using sendmail.
I need to do the following: Send all internal emails to one relay, send to a particular external domain via a relay that required authentication.
Could someone please advise on configuration? I tried one possibility but it failed.

Mod Comment Posting "Does not work" without explanation does not help you or anyone. If a command does not work for you, please show the exact circumstances you used it, and the exact error or malfunction you received. Do not paraphrase errors, or post the text as links, images, or attachments if you can avoid it: Paste the exact message, in code tags, like [code] text [/code] or by selecting the text and using the Image button.

Thank you.

Expecting a precise, quantitative solution requires a precise, quantitative specification.
A fuzzy spec like above will get you a generic answer.
