But you succeeded? Else feel free to ask again.
I do not share you opinion about the difficulty. All masquerading
options are predefined in the sendmail.mc which Fedore ships. With just
very few documentation reading - and that is necessary for each MTA -
the task can be solved.
Email is maybe the most complex topic, as there are several things are
involved, starting with the MUA (mail user client; in your case mutt
which has a lot of switches), the MTA (mail transmission agent), DNS
(local DNS, remote DNS, hostname settings) and the partner side (i.e.
the ISP's smart host).
