Er, if you look at the beginning of this message, the answer is right there
for you.  Oh, and don't forget to do a "/etc/rc.d/inet.d/sendmail restart"
after you have modified the config file.

        If you really want to take the jump, and "Go Where No One Has Gone Before"
(Well, almost no one...), take a ride over to http://www.sendmail.org.  They
have enough documentation to keep you busy for a while.

        The file you need to modify is "/etc/sendmail.cf".  You need to
define "DS"
in it.  So, if your ISP's relay machine was "relay.isp.com", then you would
have the following line:
# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DSrelay.isp.com

        Now you can have your local clients hand their mail off to your
machine,
and your machine will be able to hand their mail off to your ISP's mail
server.

        Simple, but effective.

Thank you. Could you, please, give some more info? I mean how to set
this feature and/or where to look at for documentation?
