OT:Sendmail Question ...

Virtusertable can deliver to a different domain/email id. If you want
mail meant for non-existant users on local domains to be routed out to a
smart host, use the LUSER_RELAY feature in sendmail.mc and do a m4
compilation. LUSER_RELAY takes an argument of a hostname to which the
unknown local user mail is routed to.

define(`LUSER_RELAY',`SMTP:HOST.FQDN')dnl is the line to use. Hope this
helps.

Read www.sendmail.org on the subject of: FEATURE(`virtusertable', dbm -o
/etc/mail/virtual.users)
