Best to do that anyway. Some e-mail providers will only accept e-mail 
from known mail servers (AOL)
and bounce if the IP of your sending server is not a static, known 
mailserver.

What you want is 'SMARTHOST'.

DSmy.mail.server.com        in sendmail.cf

or

define(`SMART_HOST', `my.mail.server.com')dnl       in sendmail.mc
