Hi Gef,
Thanks a lot for your inputs.
I made below mentioned changes to the submit.mc and configured submit.cf.
But still the sendmail uses the relay=root@localhost and the stat=queued ,
mailer=esmtp.
yes, I just need to send mails .please let me know if i am missing any other
configurations
Thanks,
kalyan
