I took it to mean he wants to have -no- MTA at all and just redirect all
outbound mail to another server's MTA (a-la Outlook, Netscape, etc).  I can
see why this might be desirable, however a look through the manual left me
clueless as to how to accomplish it.  I don't think the feature exists.  If
it -does- exist, the sendmail variable section in the manual should be
changed to crossreference to it, IMHO.  :)

The answer seems to be a minimalistic need to have your own local MTA, set
the sendmail variable correctly for it, and configure your MTA to use
whatever host as a "smart relay".
