Assuming the SMTPFrom setting isn't overriding the reply addresses specified in the queue config queue@ queue-comment@ etc. You may need to rebuild the alias hash with the newaliases command. Are you getting any bounces from your smtp?

ahh, nevermind, I got it...

Set($SMTPServer, '##########');
Set($SMTPFrom , 'r...@rt.#########.com');

but now, my question has evolved slightly.. email seems to be successfully sent out, but I get the email saying "reply to this address if you have questions, etc..." I reply to it, and nothing seems to happen.

I've added the following lines to /etc/aliases

rt: "|/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue 'General' --action correspond --url http://rt.###########.com"; rt-comment: "|/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue 'General' --action comment --url http://rt.##########.com";

(obviously w/o the # signs...) but nothing seems to happen when I reply to the email... any ideas as to why?

    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?
