Then all you need is to define in your sendmail.cf the, so called,
"smart host" to which sendmail will forward all it's incoming mail.
When editing sendmail.cf directly:
==================================
If you're into sendmail.cf editing, then look for the line that starts
with "DS", as in:
DSmail.my.provider.gr
and if that is commented out like:
#DSmail.my.provider.gr
uncomment it and change "mail.my.provider.gr" to the host you want to
forward all outgoing mail to. Then restart sendmail.
When using a master-config file:
================================
If you are using the m4 macros and a master-config file, on the other
hand, you need to define SMART_HOST to the host you want to send all
outgoing mail to. I customarily use:
define(`SMART_HOST', `mail.my.provider.gr')
then, regenerate your sendmail.cf and restart sendmail.
