	This is in the NetBSD FAQ:

	As an aside you should probably use NetBSD 1.3.1 inestad of 1.3 -
	1.3.1 is a bugfix release of 1.3

	If you just want it to be a 'dumb' host that sends all mail to
	your mailhost:

		cd /usr/share/sendmail/cf
		Create a netbsd-client.mc containing:

			include(`../m4/cf.m4')
			OSTYPE(bsd4.4)
			FEATURE(nullclient, mailhost.$m)

		If your mailhub is not called 'mailhost.<yourdomain>',
		change the above FEATURE line as appropriate.

		"make netbsd-client.cf"
		"mv /etc/sendmail.cf /etc/sendmail.cf.old"
		"mv netbsd-client.cf /etc/sendmail.cf"
