Might be a good idea ...
=======
OK my setup (2.1.7 & Sendmail 8.8):
in my /etc/mail
Makefile:
================
MAP= makemap hash
ALL= allow.db junk.db accept.db
maps: $(ALL) LocalUsers LocalNames masquerade
kill -HUP `head -1 /var/run/sendmail.pid`
touch $@
junk.db: junk
$(MAP) $? < $?
accept.db: accept
$(MAP) $? < $?
allow.db: allow
$(MAP) $? < $?
===== eof
/etc/mail/junk:
=========
202.82.45 JUNK
147.46 JUNK
147.47 JUNK
194.151.67 JUNK
adventuresinmarketing.com JUNK
usapub.com JUNK
freemoney@hotmail.com SPAMMER
cyber-host.net JUNK
hknet.com JUNK
cyber-website.com JUNK
===== eof
/etc/sendmail.cf:
Kjunk hash -a@JUNK /etc/mail/junk
Kallow hash /etc/mail/allow
Kaccept hash /etc/mail/accept
After you edit any maps in /etc/mail; run "make" to freshen & restart
sendmail.
