I tried to update my sendmail including relay filtering,
and ran into problems. My maillog file filled up with
error messages saying:

pr 25 20:25:30 itchy sendmail[1286]: gethostbyaddr(206.205.132.204) failed: 1

Apr 25 20:25:31 itchy sendmail[1286]: gethostbyaddr(206.205.132.226) failed: 1 

and any mail originating locally but going out failed with a "Relaying denied"
error.

I believe my name server provides correct reverse lookups for these addresses.

Any ideas?

If it matters, I'm running 2.5-STABLE (yes, I know it's old, but I've
been up for 200 days).
