Hello,

We are having some trouble with our servers sending out backscatter spam. I realize this is really a Sendmail issue, but if any list readers have some insights on the best way to make Sendmail stop sending bounces to outside domains, it would be greatly appreciated.

Take this to a sendmail newsgroup or mailing list and describe your configuration. Explain how/why your MTA accepts messages that it will bounce later. Be sure to mention if it is exposed directly to the internet, if it is behind another SMTP gateway, or if it acts as an SMTP gateway. You will be instructed not to accept messages for unknown users and not to accept messages that you intend to reject later. There are many helpful and experienced administrators on those lists that will help you with the configuration details, and you have a better chance of reaching someone with a similar environment.
