Hello Derek!

Did you ever find a solution for this for Sendmail?  I would never
call myself a Sendmail guru, especially now--but I recall I spent some
time on trying to solve this a while back and failed.  It seems the
Sendmail folks believe that fixing this is a bad idea, because it can
block legitimate mail e.g. if someone at your site sends mail to
someone at another site that has a .forward file that points to an
address at your site.  In case that's not clear:

  From: [email protected]
  To: [email protected]

And [email protected] has a .forward file that forwards to
[email protected].

Apparently, this message will get lost.  This seems like it should be
a fixable problem, but pffft.

I did just find this recipe, which appears to be outdated:

I also thought SPF and/or DMARC would fix this, but I never got around
to trying to set any of that up...
