Yep that would work easily enough. There's a better solution
though. Hmm where's my sendmail book.
OK if you do in sendmail.mc
define(`LOCAL_RELAY', `internal.mail.server')dnl
or in sendmail.cf
DRinternal.mail.server
What that does is that any user that sendmail doesn't know how
to deliver to will get sent to internal.mail.server. ie so you just
don't create the accounts on the first box and then all the mail will
get forwarded.
