After you've made those changes, search inside the newly created file
for:

# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DSrelay-name.domain.com

What do you find?

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
