    TIA

    You can use FEATURE(mailertable) to select mailer and host based on
    destination domain.

    see "Using Mailertables" section in cf/README file in sendmail distribution. https://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/doc8.12/cf/m4/mailertables.html

    What is missing for you?

    mailertable examples:

    # smart host equivalent
    . esmtp:example.net
    # routing subdomains
    .example.org relay:relay.example.org
    # force direct delivery
    example.com esmtp:example.com
    .examle.com esmtp:%1.example.com

    Does anyone have a pointer to something that explains using multiple smart hosts (or just
    one) to selectively choose which destination domains go through which smart host,
    and which are delivered directly from the underlying sendmail server?

    OK, just what I needed. Thanks.
