We use a domain-based virtusertable on our sendmail box, so if for
whatever reason i need to restrict access to a mail account I use the
following line:

user@domain.com		error:nouser user does not exist

This also serves to block the outgoing messages from the specific
user@domain.com in question - although I'm not 100% sure thats right,
as I'm running a failrly hacked up sendmail.cf :)
