Thank you for your response.  However, I think I miscommunicated my
problem in some way.  I do not wish an email address in the form of
@localdomain.com that does not have a valid alias or username for the
localdomain to be able to send any email it wishes to anyone that does have
an alias or username for the localdomain.  [EMAIL PROTECTED] in my
example actually does NOT exist as a valid user or any alias, I would like
to pervent these emails from going to a valid user on the system for
security/spam reasons.

Thanks,
  James

Authentication is not required to deliver to a local mailbox.  Your mail
client probably tries to authenticate, fails, but goes ahead anyway, without
authentication.
