Sendmail & relaying from network

Hi,
I have three computers networked together - one Freebsd 5.4 and two
WinXP boxes.
I cannot get Sendmail to relay messages from the two WinXP boxes. I
continue to receive an error message that relaying is not allowed. The
only way I can get it to work is to use the "FEATURE(`promiscuous_relay')"
directive. That is risky, and therefore I do not want to use it.
The two WinXP boxes are 192.168.0.3 and 192.168.0.2 respectively. The
FreeBSD box is names 'ges.seibercom.net' and the main WinXP box is
'gerard.seibercom.net'. What sort of directive should I be using to
allow the WinXP box to send mail through Sendmail and still have a
secure system?
Add the IP addresses of the WinXP boxes to /etc/mail/relay-domains
See http://www.sendmail.org/faq/section3.html#3.27 in the Sendmail FAQ
