Please refer to my previosu email about your relaying problems.  I
suggested that you install the POP-before-SMTP package that is available
for the RaQ.

This is not a DNS issue.  It is not a sendmail issue and it does not
require any manual configuration.

You can solve the problem through the GUI if you install the package I
mentioned above.

"Enabling POP Authenticated Relaying allows users to access their mail from
non-trusted hosts, IP addresses, or network ranges. After users login, they
can check their mail using POP, and they can send mail using SMTP for 15
minutes."

I suggest that you read http://www.sendmail.org  There is a link for books
on that website.
