Nagios is not responsible for how your smtp mail is dispatched.
Nagios passes it to the local submit agent (most likely sendmail)
and is done with it. It's up to the MTA (sendmail) to decide what
to do with a mail. If you want it to relay mails to an external SMTP,
configure sendmail to do it for you -> check the smarthost setting.
