That is trivial--at least in Debian.  During the Debian sendmail config
script, you tell it you want to use a "Smart Host", then set your ISP's SMTP
server as the smart host.  I'm sure you can accomplish the same thing easily
with other distributions... I just can't provide direct instructions on how
to do it :-)
