You need to build a list of allowable relays and make sure you build the
feature into your cf file when doing the m4. Add this line to your mc file

FEATURE(relay_hosts_only, hash -o /etc/sendmail.access.db)dnl

I may be mistaken though, it's been a while since I've built one. You will
also need to have a list of allowable relays with this kind of format

domain.com	RELAY
domain2.com	REJECT
 
Like that. Then hash the file out
makemap -v hash /etc/mail/sendmail.domains.db <
/etc/mail/domains/domain.com

Or whatever your paths are. Best bet is to go here and read up on it.
