To do what you want, just set the following in sendmail.cf

# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DS

Set DS value to the relay machine.

Example:

DSmyrelay.foo.com

If it's left empty, your system will try to deliver mail itself.

According to your problem description, that should be all you need to do.
