Sendmail "Smart-Host" config

[barfoo99]

Hi There,

I have an internal linux box(redhat7.3), and I simply wish to configure sendmail using "smart_host" so any email generated by the box is delivered via SMTP to our main mail server.

I have entered the IP of our mail server into /etc/mail/sendmail.mc, and built sendmail.cf with "m4 sendmail.mc /etc/sendmail.cf", and restarted sendmail, with no joy.

I have been tinkering for days now, can anybody offer advice?
Sendmail is a new world to me.

Thankyou,

Julz.

I have managed to solve this, if anyone has the same problem:

Had to:
a) change define(`SMART_HOST',`host.domain') to define(`SMART_HOST',`[host.domain]')
(the square brackets mean dont do an MX lookup on s-mail.macraes.co.nz)

b) ADD
FEATURE(`nocanonify')
