	in the interior (second server) sendmail box must use the
	exterior (first server) sendmail box as its "smart host".

	assuming that the exterior (first server) sendmail box's
	name is foo.rubbermaid.be.

	in the interior (second server) sendmail box's /etc/sendmail.cf
	file find the line "DS", change that line to
	"DSsmtp8:foo.rubbermaid.be".

	then restart sendmail on the interior (second server)
	sendmail box.
