Sending mail via gnus

I have a seemingly elementary question that I can't seem to find an
answer
to.  I'm getting into using Emacs (ideally exclusively for things like
editing, email, newsgroups, etc.).  I've gotten gnus to display articles
from a newsgroup server and I've been going through the manual learning
how
to mark, score, etc.  However, I don't seem to be able to post or mail
from
gnus.  The default is set to use sendmail as the agent (which I thought
was
working on my system) but no mail goes out.  So I'd like to change it to
use my ISP's smtp server and was not sure about the syntax and where to
put
it (I don't currently have a ~/.gnus file (using SUSE) but I do have a
~/.gnu-emacs file.  Do I need to create a .gnus file?

Thanks for the assistance.
