Hope it's ok to ask a sendmail question here, I've exhausted the news groups and web....

I'm running sendmail 8.12 and it seems to have a "MAIL FROM" test in it somewhere. Mail "FROM" is not an effective spam defense and I have it locked down otherwise, so I want to shut off the "MAIL FROM" test in sendmail. I have a client who sends out email alerts using the server and uses a random invalid return address for each alert. Sendmail is rejecting the messages based on the From field. I have their server's IP address in the relay-domains file, but it's ignoring that and rejecting the mail anyway.

I've tried adding the address to the virtusertable db, aliases, and the access db as "RELAY" as "name+*" , and sendmail still rejects the messages.

ANY ideas will be appreciated.....
