I disagree. What you want is easy to achieve running Sendmail. But
without reading a bit of the documentation you won't get that far, of
course.

/etc/mail/sendmail.mc is to be edited. It already contains a prepared
and commented smart host entry (nearly at top). Then either give your
mail host a valid FQDN so Sendmail can detect it (make sure the first
dotted FQDN in /etc/hosts is that name). As an alternate you can
activate the masquerading settings which are too already prepared in
sendmail.mc.
