Ok Red Hat 9. I assume u have created user accounts for the windoze users in ur mail server.

1) Go to the /etc/mail directory.  Type cd /etc/mail

2) U will see a file called sendmail.mc

3) Open the file with vi and goto a line where it looks like this:
     
          DAEMON_OPTIONS('Port=smtp, Addr=127.0.0.1, MTA')
Change the value Addr from 1270.0.1 to ur server's ip address.

4) Save and exit.

5) Open a file in /etc/mail with the name "access".
U will see lines like this:
localhost               RELAY
127.0.0.1              RELAY

All u have to do is add ur server's ip address to it and followed by the keyword "RELAY"

If necessary add ur server's hostname too. For me it's richard.sybex.com                 RELAY

6) Save ur file and exit.

7) Now leave the /etc/mail directory. Type  cd /

8) Compile the /etc/mail directory by typing: make -C /etc/mail

9) To make ur configuration work, stop the sendmail service and restart it. Use the commands below:

           (i) killall -HUP sendmail
           (ii) service sendmail start
