I'm having trouble setting up mail on a small network (2 machines) running 3.0.

I would like to be able to send mail between the two machines and be able to  
send mail from the 2 machines to the outside world.  This seems like a fairly  
common thing to want to do yet I can't get this to work.

I have set one machine 'astrals' to be the server (mailserver, file server,  
netinfo server, etc server).  This machine has connected to it a modem through  
which I run my UUCP connection provided by Portal Communications.  To send mail  
to the outside world I use a sendmail.cf that I got from Neuron,Inc.  This  
works fine when I send mail from astrals.

The client machine, snookems, was set up as a mail client according to the Mail  
chapter in the Sys Admin manual.  That is, it uses the  
sendmail.sharedsubsidiary.cf file.
When set up this way the client can sendmail to the server but not to the  
outside world (mail is returned with "Host Unknown" error).

So I tried setting up the server as described in the Sys Admin manual.  That  
is, it uses sendmail.mailhost.cf.  But then neither machine can send to the  
outside world.  I tried modifying the sendmail.mailhost.cf by changing the two  
lines:
	DR mail-relay
	CR mail-relay
to:
	DR portal
	CR portal
But no go. Mail still could not be sent to the outside world.

It seems to me that what I'm trying to do is common enough that this should be  
easy.  Am I missing something obvious?
