Something very similar to http://www.sendmail.org/faq/section5.html#5.3.3 -
or maybe some firewall settings.

Sendmail on SuSE is set up with some rather weird options (PICKY_HELO_CHECK
for one, and also tcpwrappers support so you might need a hosts.allow entry).

I'd suggest you ditch the SuSE supplied sendmail and compile your own .. .and
don't let YaST get its hands on it ... it is a pretty good tool, but using
sendmail.mc is the way to go.

If you have vim editor installed, the following script will do 
a DOS to Unix conversion:
#!/bin/sh                           # Save d2u, chmod +x d2u
vim -c ":set ff=unix" -c ":wq" $1   # Usage: d2u filename.txt
