Possibly easier to edit /etc/mail/freebsd.submit.mc. Change the last line:
FEATURE(`msp', `[127.0.0.1]')dnl
to
FEATURE(`msp', `your.mail.server')dnl
Then run 'make all install' in /etc/mail. This has exactly the same effect
as Toni's solution, but I find the .mc far easier to read than the .cf that
is generated from it, plus this approach will survive an installworld - that
runs make in /etc/mail, which will re-generate your submit.cf.
Cheers,
Scott
