Pretty much everything that sendmail does can be described as mail
relaying.
If you want the proxy's sendmail to forward *all* email which is
destined for a local user to the internal mail server, change the `DR'
line in sendmail.cf to contain the hostname of your internal mail
server.
Also, to allow a host on the LAN (e.g. the internal mail server) to
send mail via the proxy, you will need to add its IP address to the
/etc/mail/relay-domains file.
