Gordon,

thanks for your reply but that is not the reply i expect though, we are
using sendmail at the moment, am planning to migrate to exchange by end of
this year. I need to know how to automate the change due to some
configuration issue. It's a long story. Would appreciate if anyone can help.

please, solution only. thanks.

When you move to Exchange, your change will be more than simply redirecting
the SMTP and POP servers, since Exchange accounts don't use POP/SMTP.
Investigate PRF files and the Custom Installation Wizard.
