Define box B as the smart host in box A's /etc/mail/`hostname`.mc:
define(`SMART_HOST', `boxb.your.dom.ain')
If `hostname`.mc doesn't exist, typing 'make' in /etc/mail will
generate a default version. After editing that file, simply:
cd /etc/mail
make install restart-mta
to generate the modified sendmail.cf and load it into the sendmail MTA
process.
Simple enough for you?
Cheers,
Matthew
