I'm trying to set up sendmail to route outgoing mail to an external SMTP server. I need this for Mutt, which doesn't have its own means of transfering mail and relies on whatever MTA the system provides. I found out about sendmail's SMARTHOST capability and added this line to my <host>.mc configuration file (built by 'cd /etc/mail && make && make install'):
define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp.liu.se')
I then installed the changes with 'make && make install && make restart'. Now, whenever I try to send mail from Mutt, I get back the following failure notice:
