Sendmail has been moving mail around the planet for many years. There are only
2 basic things that need to be done to a stock RedHat (or clone) install to
make mail flow:
1) Remove the restriction in the sendmail.mc of only sending mail through the
local loop interface.
2) Make sure the machine has a resolvable FQDN. If only sending mail locally
in a network, it just has to resolve on your nameservers, but it has to
resolve somewhere.
