Before the rewrite rules section, add the following:
#Define host to forward mail through
DVhostname.do.main

Where hostname.do.main is the host to route mail through.
Then comment out the following rule in ruleset s0 (bottom of sendmail.cf)
#
# Send domain address to tcp. This includes domain literals [IP quads].
# User is full focused path.
#
#R$*<@$+>$* $#tcp$@$2$:$1<@$2>$3
^---comment it out with a "#" character

Then, add a rewrite rule to S0:
#Following rewrite rule redirects all mail through the gateway defined
#by DV
R$*<@$+>$*<tab>$#tcp$@$V$:$1<@$2>$3

Where <tab> is a tab character (ascii 9).

Maybe this could go in the FAQ file?
