Andrzej Filip
Abstract The posting describes how to modify your sendmail configuration

addresses.
It will make sendmail reject during smtp session delivewry attempt to
adresses handled
by no local mailer.
Usage localtable [/etc/mail/localtable]:
# local_address local_like_mailer:delivery_address
zyz cyrus:xyz
j23 cyrus:j23
007 cyrus:m5
It should send email for local adress xyz to cyrus xyz mailbox and
messages for local adress 007 to user m5 mailbox in cyrus
Single File Version
You can download cf/feature/localtable.m4 file and put it in
cf/feature/ directory of sendmail ditribution
It will allow you you get the functionality via single line in your
*.mc file
FEATURE(`localtable')
The feature should work with sendmail 8.11 and 8.12
Testing You can use commands given below for testing the feature:
"Normal" delivery test:
sendmail -bv xyz
sendmail -bv x...@localhost.localdomain
sendmail -bv 007
sendmail -bv root
sendmail -bv nosuchuser
Converting sasldb to localtable You can use sasldb2ltab.pl perl script
to convert sasldb to localtable.
[ tested on RH7.2 & cyrus-sasl.1.5.24 ]
localtable.db: localtable
makemap hash localtable < localtable
localtable: /etc/sasldb
sasldb2ltab.pl > localtable
