Sending mail to External ISP mail server

[Dennis James]

I wonder if anyone can help me.

I would like to send root mail to an outside mail server.
As well at times i would like to have  log files sent to an outside mail
server Isp.

I want it simple or maybe a link that can explain in simple terms on how to
configure linux to do this.
I am running redhat 9.

I had a look at the sendmail.cf ( also researched on the internet) and it
was enough to turn me off.

Surely there is a simple way of redirecting mail to a external server.

Thanks
