RE: Sendmail to Relay different domains to different hosts
Great! I will give this a try. If I put a single entry into the mailertable for the corporate domain would everything else default to the smarthost defined in sendmail.cf?

RE: Sendmail to Relay different domains to different hosts
Just did some testing. A single entry for the corporate domain as described below and the smarthost set for everything else seems to work. Thanks very much everyone!
