I believe the mailertable contains the answer to all his questions.
Which would make it most definitely not a SA problem, but I'll try and
help.

On top of the missing user, I believe sendmail is attempting to deliver
locally.

What he needs to do, is configure an entry in mailertable (usually
/etc/mail/mailertable).  For example:

#mailer table example(!) entry
Microsoft.com   esmtp:[10.100.10.5]

...would then forward all messages this gateway receives, that are
addressed to (someone)@microsoft.com, to an SMTP server at address
10.100.10.5.  This is similar to the configuration I use to forward mail
from linux email gateways to an exchange server on the LAN.

Don't forget to re-make the mailertable file:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mail]# makemap hash mailertable.db < mailertable

Hopefully I understood your problem correctly :)
