dear friends 

i have tried to make host2 as realy agent for host1 by making change in
sendmail.cf file , putting
 
DShost2.svrec.ernet.in 

line in the file , now when a'm checking for relaying by using mail -v
option with the name of some host say host3 like ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) 
the mail goes through host2 means relaying is working perfectly

now when i tried the same thing with ip no of hsot3 
say 

host1$ mail -v shubh@[xx.xx.xx.xx]

this mail dosn't follow the relay agents path the sending host connects 
directly to the destination host 

why so ??  any more changes needed in sendmail.cf 

( i am not using m4 and .mc files )

regards 

shubh
