You should be able to set up postfix using the parameter 'relayhost' for
relaying, you can specify a different port if needed. This would allow
you to still use the sendmail commands to send. This is assuming you can
still receive on port 25 for MX deliveries. Otherwise you may have no
choice but to set it up on your real smtp server.

We're tightly controlling port 25 on our site here, so using the local
method for sending email is a no go. I read something about
installing mailgate on the smtp server here, but that has some
people... nervous.... My boss seems to think it should be a matter of
switching a line or two to set a smarthost to our smtp server to make
it work. So my question is, without dropping additional software or
whatnot on the smtp server... how can I use an external server for
sending mail? What's the preferred and correct configuration needed?
