That being said, the general steps would be: 1) Edit /etc/mail/sendmail.cf 2) Search for "DS" You'll find a section that looks like this: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSrelay:[] 3) Put the downstream mail server IP in the square brackets. 4) Save changes. Bounce sendmail service. Again, I have to reiterate that this is a general guideline. Your mileage may vary. -M
