Edit the /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file to:

1. Set the Dj$ variable to the server's domain name.
2. Set the DS variable to the mail relay to which you want to point.

Edit the /etc/nsswitch.conf file to specify how to do DNS resolution.

stop and start the Sendmail daemon.
/sbin/init.d/sendmail stop
/sbin/init.d/sendmail start
