Hi

I am using sendmail 8.13.x with *.mc configuration
I would like to reject ALL local delivery (not forward elsewhere, just
nuke it and return an 5xx error to the sender), This is intersite
transfer MTA and I dont want ANY local delivery, not even root nor
postmaster.

ideally I would like to configure rule that will kick in after sendmail
determines
delivery agent and give me an option to do something, e..g,

if (agent = local) then $#error 5.x.x no local delivery

is there anything like that possible thru ruleset thru *.mc
configuration ?

I went thru cf/README but did not find anything pertinent

for now I redefined local mailer path to /bin/false but that's a little
too late as sendmail
accepts delivery to remote client and then attempts local thru
/bin/false. I would like
to reject local delivery while in SMTP session with remote client.

I appreciate any hint/

FEATURE(`stickyhost')dnl Applies MAIL_HUB *before* aliasing
define(`MAIL_HUB',`error:5.x.x:"5?? no local deliveries')dnl

Consider using DontProbeInterfaces to avoid surprises
http://www.sendmail.org/m4/tweaking_...OBE_INTERFACES

I suggest you version without stickyhost and using aliases to redirect
some classic "error reporting destination" to addresses on another host.
