It is not clear what you really want to do, block incoming, sending or
both, so...
You can use the access maps ..... in later Sendmail versions
To:<address> REJECT
From:<address> REJECT
OR
To:<address> <valid error code> <text message>
From:<address> <valid error code> <text message>
OR you could disable shell, block IP if from known host to service port
with inetd,xinetd,ipchains,iptables

Procmail works well, you could even have it send a message back to sender
explaining mail has been disabled, not sure if alias maps will accept user:
/dev/null , check docs.
