From the top of my hat I would say that in virtusers you can tell it to relay all mail, say @saskwatch.com, to something else. This is seperate from the actual relaying prevention. There is an example in either the FAQ or the manual on sendmail.org, a quite elaborate one too. Roelof -- Home is where the (@) http://eboa.com/ is.
