I've Cc'd the list in case anyone else made the same mistake.

YES, you need the Scheck_mail Lines that start with an "S" define rulesets in sendmail.cf, so this is rule check_mail Without the Scheck_mail the tests in the ruleset will be executed by wharever rule they happen to follow. (The start of one rule is what determines the end of another rule) > i put everything after the #verify line at the end of my sendmail.cf > is this ok? If your .cf is similar to mine, in that the existing lines at the end were mailer defs then yes, it's OK. But add the Scheck_mail to make it work :) I have a web page describing the check_* rules at http://www.beach.net/~dan that describes Claus Assman's rules (and has a link to them) It's a little out of date, missing some of the newer tricks, including this one, but reading through it should help you understand what's going on with these rules. And whenever you implement rules that toss mail away you really *should* understand what's happening.
