connecting my server to comcast

Hi,

I just setup a server running centos 4 that I am going to use for a mail server. I setup NAT in my router to open up the smtp port and i assigned the server a static ip address using ifconfig. Now is there a step im missing because now i cant route out of the server or ping anything? Oh btw i also setup the gateway using ifconfig.

Thanks in advanced!

NAME
smtp - Client-side tcl implementation of the smtp protocol SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl package require mime ?1.3.2? package require smtp ?1.3.2? ::smtp::sendmessage token option... DESCRIPTION
The smtp library package provides the client side of the smtp protocol. ::smtp::sendmessage token option... This command sends the MIME part (see package mime) represented by token to an SMTP server. options is a list of options and their associated values. The recognized options are: -servers A list of SMTP servers. The default is localhost. -ports A list of SMTP ports. The default is 25. -queue Indicates that the SMTP server should be asked to queue the message for later processing. A boolean value. -atleastone Indicates that the SMTP server must find at least one recipient acceptable for the message to be sent. A boolean value. -originator A string containing an 822-style address specification. If present the header isn't examined for an originator address. -recipients A string containing one or more 822-style address specifications. If present the header isn't examined for recipient addresses). If the string contains more than one address they will be separated by commas. -header A list of keywords and their values (may occur zero or more times). If the -originator option is not present, the originator address is taken from From (or Resent-From); similarly, if the -recipients option is not present, recipient addresses are taken from To, cc, and Bcc (or Resent-To, and so on). Note that the header key/values supplied by the -header option (not those present in the MIME part) are consulted. Regardless, header key/values are added to the outgoing message as necessary to ensure that a valid 822-style message is sent. The command returns a list indicating which recipients were unacceptable to the SMTP server. Each element of the list is another list, con- taining the address, an SMTP error code, and a textual diagnostic. Depending on the -atleastone option and the intended recipients, a non- empty list may still indicate that the message was accepted by the server. SEE ALSO
