Not recommended if you want to avoid SPAM, but add the following to your .mc
file, rebuild .cf file and restart sendmail.

> 	Hi all. I'm wondering how I would go about disabling dns lookups in
> sendmail?  Right now it's denying mail delivery because it can't resolve
> the senders domain of most of the mail it's recieving.  I'd like
> to tell it
> to just accept them regardless if it can resolve the domain name or
> not.  Can someone tell me where and how to do this?  Maybe give me some
> examples?  Thanks. Also, I'm a sendmail newbie so please keep it
> as simple
> as possible.  Thanks.
