Bill!! you are my superman! lol i dont even know how to thank you. all i had to do is recompile the sendmail!!!!!! it is truly flexible and ununinstallable. :) mailertable did the thing. i would like to consider the problem to be solved. if no objections pending? next time i will pay more time to the sendmail documentation prior to writing out the problems.

You can set mail to any domain you wish to go through any SMTP server you are permitted to use. Some places won't accept my mail as even though I"m on a STATIC IP and have been the same one for 3 years, they consider all DSL lines as spam sources. So depending on end destination I send some to my providers transport, and others off to another machine I manage. Setup is simple. abc.com smtp: And then just run make in /etc/mail to compile it. Sendmail is very flexible.
