Try:

    define(`RELAY_MAILER_ARGS', `IPC $h 697')dnl

This overrides the 'RELAY' mailer (which should be what gets used when
you connect to your smart host) to connect on port 697.  If necessary
you can use the mailertable functionality to force all messages to the
smart host to use the 'relay' mailer:

    .		relay:smtp-server.com
