Check out the Virtual Exim package at http://silverwraith.com/vexim It does the same at vpopmail but for Exim - sorry, not sendmail yet, but if you can make Sendmail lookup data in a MySQL database, this will work for you. I know it's very close to, if not exceeding the functionality / usability of vpopmail, because I used to use Qmail+vpopmail. Then I migrated the Exim and started the vexim project. It's still small with only one other developer, but very stable. Testers and more developers always welcome! I use it for all my production mail right now.
