Regd sending email from HP unix to Lotus/other

Hi,
We have requirement of sending emails from unix machines to mail ids in lotus notes domain and to external ids (yahoo,gmail etc).
I would like to know how can we achive this.
We have program written using Java Mail API.

2.How can HP UX11i server relay emails to Lotus notes (Domino) or other SMTP servers for Gmail and Yahoo.

Shalom,

1) SMTP relay configuration in sendmail.cf DSrelayhostname

2)Yes, sendmail ships with HP-UX and can relay to any valid SMTP host that permits it to do relay.

Sending email to Lotus or Exchange is the easy part. Just address the email appropriately. However, your Lotus mail admin must configure their mail server to accept (and forward if necessary) email from your server.
