How do I Relay between Domains with sendmail in Solaris

I need all of the mail routed to machine x on campus. Machine x then checks that it is not spam and sends it out. I have tried defining machine x in various sendmail files but I can not get it to work. Do you know what files need to be changed to get all mail routed out to a different machine?

I have added machine x in the /etc/mail/relay-domains file. What else do I need to change? Thanks for any help you can give me.

/etc/mail/mailertable
--
domain.com smtp:[x.x.x.x]
--

Then restart sendmail.

ahoffmann make a good point, defined you mail gateway as the Smart Host of the other
mail server, and scan the out going email at your mail gateway (machine x ).

remember to restart sendmail after you change the DS record.

I'm still working with this and I appreciate all the suggestions.

When I figure out what the missing link is, I'll accept the solution that got me there.

do you use default Sun installation for sendmail?
Not that Sun has it's own idea how sendmail works ...
