You should add the domain that your Exchange server accepts mail for to
/etc/mail/relay-domains and then restart MailScanner.
 
Add an entry to /etc/mail/mailertable like so:
 
yourdomain.com        esmtp:[192.168.x.x]
 
Then run make to hash the file to db
 
If your Exchange is configured to reject unknown users, your MailScanner
box should be fine.  I run milter-sender on mine which calls the Exchange
server (or any other MX) to verify the recipient prior to accepting the
message.  It also calls back to verify the sender prior to accepting a
message.

Subject: Sendmail configuration for gateway

I’ve got MailScanner/SpamAssassin/Sendmail set up to act as a
gateway to out Exchange server.  I setup the tables as instructed
in Wiki.  However, Sendmail keeps rejecting all the incoming email
stating that the user doesn’t exist.  Well, of course they
don’t exist on filter/gateway machine.  They only exist in
the Exchange environment.  How do I get Sendmail to just accept
incoming mail for all or against a frequently updated list of
Exchange users?

When a person studies Bible and Mishnah . . . but is dishonest in
business, and does not speak gently with people, what do people say
of him? ‘Woe unto him who studies Torah. . . . This man
studied Torah; look how corrupt are his deeds, how ugly his
ways.’"
-- Babylonian Talmud, Yoma 86a
