AFAIK you can but the IP address needs to be properly quoted (with
something like square brackets) in sendmail config files to work properly.
OTOH, your students might be happier with [EMAIL PROTECTED] rather than
[EMAIL PROTECTED] as an email address. As far as needing to point their machines
at a mailserver, an IP address is fine

Check out Donncha O'Caoimh's "Install Sendmail" program at
