Maybe Red Hat's Sendmail HOWTO will be of help:
http://www.redhat.com/support/resources/howto/RH-sendmail-HOWTO/book1.html.
I think their section devoted to the home user (Section 4.1)
is pretty good, it worked for me.
And about ISPs providing outgoing mail servers: I think they
do it. You send your outgoing mail to, say, mail.isp.com,
or smtp.isp.com, and it gets relayed onwards. Only you have
to make sure the messages appear to be from the address
you're getting from the ISP, hence masquerading (Section
4.1.2). (Hopefully!) very simple.
