Sendmail Problems

My isp blocks both outbound and inbound connections on port 25. Poses
a slight problem for sending and reciving mail.

I have found a site which will relay for me, but I do not have any
idea how to set up the sendmail prog to do this.

Given that inbound and outbound connections to 25 are also blocked, I
need to set up my system to

1) relay to a remote host to send email
2) relay to that host on a different port (Port 3325)
3) authenticate to that host


Can anyone either point me to a good webpage or provide some config
lines to add into the files, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

you can use the following in your sendmail.mc file

dnl sendmail through your isp's mail server
define(`SMART_HOST',`smtp1.yourisp.net')

and

DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=3325,Addr=YOURIP, Name=MTA')
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=3325,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=987, Name=MSA, M=E')
