As far as I know, theres no way around this. By the way sendmail (and any other MTA as well), anything that is listed in 'local-host-names' is treated as a domain that will be accepted for any valid user.
The only way I can think of is mapping every user email to each user, not with a catchall. They are evil. :) -- Brad Lay ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) /EARTH is 98% full. Please delete anybody you can!
