Is it possible to define an alternate mail relay in sendmail.cf?
What we'd like to do is have mail go out through the alternate host if
the first host is down.

Pointers to appropriate documentation would be appreciated.  The folks
involved in this enterprise are complete newcomers to sendmail & its
byzantine complexities.

TIA,
