Scalix Wiki -> FAQ -> How do I forward messages to a Smart Host?
Configuring a Smart Host provides a way of routing messages from a server that has no knowledge of external DNS to one that does (the Smart Host).
To forward all internet bound messages from Scalix Server to a Smart Host, which will then send them out to the internet:
1)Set the DS macro in the file sendmail.cf on the Scalix Server. Change the file from:
# "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS
to
# "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSoutboundserver.domain.com
Where outboundserver.domain.com is the name of your internet-bound (messages) server/Smart Host.
2) After the change, stop (omshut) and start Scalix (omrc).
Method Number 2
# vi /etc/hosts 192.168.1.10 mailgateway.domain.com
# vi /etc/mail/sendmail.mc define(`SMART_HOST', `mailgateway.domain.com')dnl
This command will do the necessary changes in Scalix and restart sendmail.

To verify the outgoing email log.
