Set up sendmail.cf to relay mail
(DSexchange.mail.com) >> your email server

stop/start sendmail

use .forward file to forward mail to you.

I use a similar setup. The external email address is for my pager, so I am notified of 'bad things' as soon as possible.

The .forward file should be in the root dir and should appear as below.

sysadm1@company.com
sysadm2@company.com
If I had only read the instructions first??
