Personally, I try to avoid sendmail like the plague ...

You need to edit your sendmail config and setup a "smarthost" that
handles your outgoing mail. It's the "DS" setting in sendmail.cf, but
I don't know if there are special config tools for your OS distro - it
might use the M4-based configuration files to build a sendmail.cf.

It may also be necessary to setup the "DM" (masquerade as) setting to
give your outbound mail a sensible domain as part of the sender-address.
