Sure, just enter all 6 IP addresses.  160 is the network and 167
is the broadcast so they are of course, unusable IPs for any
machines.

123.123.123.161
123.123.123.162
123.123.123.163
123.123.123.164
123.123.123.165
123.123.123.166

Other than that, use pop-before-relay package or upgrade to sendmail
8.10.X or higher to use SMTP authentication for relay.
