My ISP is called
eircom.net .
So I uncommented and edited the line
define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp.eircom.net')dnl
in /etc/mail/sendmail.mc ,
and followed the instructions at the head of this file
to give the command "make -C /etc/mail".
Make sure you have sendmail-cf installed, as well as sendmail.
Also restart sendmail.
I certainly do not want to read a book about sendmail.
No sense of fun, some people :-) However be carefull not to end up
running an open mail relay.
