Yes, the sendmail 'access_db' feature is the way to do this.
First make sure that your 'cf' has enabled that feature if not
put the line:
FEATURE(access_db)
in your sendmail.mc file and rebuild your '.cf'.
Create the text file "/etc/mail/access" with the above contents
and then create the binary '.db' file via the command:
makemap hash /etc/mail/access < /etc/mail/access
Note that you will also need to add the 'system' type message
sources to that list (EG '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' & '[EMAIL PROTECTED]')
because that 'From:syslang.net REJECT' is a catch-all reject
that will reject anything of the form [EMAIL PROTECTED] which
has not been explicitly allowed.
