If I understand the question, change the default /etc/mail/freebsd.mc: < dnl define(`SMART_HOST', `your.isp.mail.server') --- >define(`SMART_HOST', `yourISPsMailHost.yourISP.net') And rebuild the two sendmail .cf files in that dir following the README and maybe the sendmail manpage. You'll probably have to use "sendmail" vars from /etc/default/rc.conf and (re)start some sendmail daemons. It's nasty and I didn't take notes. And I doubt if send-pr will work without your deciphering the script to see if it can be fooled with environmental vars or you could modify it. I've always just edited a copy of a template PR and then mailed it.
You do understand the question but this doesn't help me. My ISP is refusing to relay for me just as well as any third-party servers. We're not expected/intended to send mail that way so they're not set up to do so.
