The sendmail.cf in 3.1 and 3.2 includes feature access.db You need to create a file, /etc/mail/access and list the domains you want to be able to use the mail server to send mail. At a minimum it needs to include 127.0.0 OK your.domain OK if you're running nat or have users whose IP address is not resolvable you'll need to enter the network prefix to allow like 192.168.1 RELAY After creating /etc/mail/access run # cd /etc/mail # makemap hash access < access See the anti-spam section at www.sendmail.org for more info on the access file, it's also where you put in blocks for mail you don't want.
