Jake,

you should start with reading the documentation. The links have been
posted more than one time now:

http://www.sendmail.org/m4/anti_spam.html

It then would be clear that you need to specify the allowed recipients
with full address (speaking about Steve's configuration example).

If you host 6 mail domains then you already use a virtusertable. So why
not using catchall addresses like I said and either rejecting with them
or directing to a SPAM account which you check time by time.

But we drive in circles. You either have to accept each and every mail,
even to invalid addresses, to avoid sending back information to senders
with information that the chosen mail address is invalid, or you use
other mechanisms like blocking on sender IP basis (iptables) if you want
to avoid the proper RFC compatible SMTP handling.
