Correct, sendmail will not relay for a domain that you do not allow and 
this is working for me.  The subject line of this message is incorrect, 
it should have read "RELAY" not reject.  My MailScanner/sendmail servers 
relay to an internal Lotus Domino server.  I have compiled a list of 
addresses that I want sendmail to relay to and if the adddress is not 
listed I do not want sendmail to accept it.  Right now it accepts any 
address that is sent to mydomain.com, hence the extra load.  MailScanner 
is having to process a bunch of messages that are going to non existent 
users in mydomain.com.

I have the list of receipients that I need to relay for I just need to 
know how to tell sendmail to only relay to these users and drop the rest.
