If I understand the question, change the default /etc/mail/freebsd.mc: < dnl define(`SMART_HOST', `your.isp.mail.server') --- > define(`SMART_HOST', `yourISPsMailHost.yourISP.net') And rebuild the two sendmail .cf files in that dir following the README and maybe the sendmail manpage. You'll probably have to use "sendmail" vars from /etc/default/rc.conf and (re)start some sendmail daemons. It's nasty and I didn't take notes. And I doubt if send-pr will work without your deciphering the script to see if it can be fooled with environmental vars or you could modify it. I've always just edited a copy of a template PR and then mailed it. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
