You can set up a virtusertable to bounce messages. I did this with the
euglug.net domain. The usernames for the emails aren't actually users,
and they don't have an account. But they can still receive emails and
those get bounced to their accounts on other boxes.
Somewhere in the sendmail.cf should be a line similar to the following:
# Virtual user table (maps incoming users)
Kvirtuser hash -o /etc/mail/virtusertable
In the file virtusertable, are lines like this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Once you have your file, you have to type:
makemap hash virtusertable.db < virtusertable
to make a hash table of your virtual users. The resulting file,
virtusertable.db should be in the directory specified in your
sendmail.cf.
This is coming from a FreeBSD box, so some directories may be slightly
different. This is also Sendmail 8.9.3
