Hmmm... You should try www.sendmail.org - as this is more sendmail related
than FreeBSD related... :-)  If you setup a 'virtualusertable' you can specify
the error to return for non-deliverable addresses... I couldn't see any global
settings for this in the .cf/mc, but www.sendmail.org has details on how to
setup Virtual User tables...

Good luck :)
