Are you saying that you moved the server to another machine and it quit relaying or you are using an e-mail client on a different machine? If it's the latter, you need to tell sendmail that it is ok to relay mail that comes from you. This is done by editing the /etc/mail/access file. You will see that it has two columns. The first can be an e-mail address, domain or range of ip addresses. The second column is for what you want it to do with the mail. The choices are OK, Relay, Reject or an error message. When you are done you need to create access.db with the following command:

makemap hash /etc/mail/access.db < /etc/mail/access

The path to this file may be different on your distro. If sendmail hasn't been told that it's ok to relay some kinds of mail, you will need to do that also. You will need to edit /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and add the following line:

FEATURE(`relay_local_from')dnl

Then run:

m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
