sendmail and multi-homed systems
interface to use (assuming 2 interfaces can reach the target address). I would
like to force sendmail to use one of them for delivery. Logically like this:
If delivery to user@target.knowndomain then
Use InterfaceY
Else
Use InterfaceZ
I have looked in the sendmail.cf but not found anything that looks right.
Any suggestions?

Re: sendmail and multi-homed systems
This can probably be found in the DNS info with the MX records.

Re: sendmail and multi-homed systems
1. what path your mail (application level) travels; or
2. what path the packets (IP layer)
For outbound mail, sendmail (application layer) attempts to deliver directly to the destination domain's mailserver as specified by MX record - if there is no MX record, sendmail relies on a relay entry in your /etc/mail/sendmail.cf to determine which server will relay on its behalf.
For the IP layer, depending on what routing (netstat -rn to check) you have set up, the packets will travel on one interface or the other - usually unless there is an explict route to the relay machine, the default route will be used.
