This is one option, but if it is a typical cable ISP, it's not likely to happen.If comcast allows what you are doing it may be as simple as asking them to put you into their reverse lookup table.
See the section in /etc/sendmail.cf as follows:I am on comcast cable. I run sendmail to directly send mail to my
recipients.
Of late, some sites, eg. aol.com, are rejecting my mail, telling me I
should be using my isp's mail server.
Comcast can be a very linux hostile environment. I don't really want to talk
to them about mail. However, I would like to either relay through their mail
server or masquerade my mail to have their mail server's ip.
I have the Bat book on email, and am not afraid to use it, but, I am
confused a bit.
Any pointers, specifically clear examples, on how to do this would be
greatly appreciated.

Set to your ISP's mail server name, and sendmail should try to forward thru it.

There are probably better or more sophisticated ways to do it, or I may have totally misunderstood the question ;-)
