Sendmail --> Blocking email from senders
 
HI,
Is there a way for sendmail 8.11.6 to be configured to block certain senders from sending me emails. Kind of like a filtering process.
Thanks

First of all: Thanks that you are a contributing member ;)

Regarding your question:
Yep it's possible using /etc/mail/access, just add an entry of the form:
Code:
user@host.net        550 Rejected due massive amout of spam!
domain.com        550 Rejected due massive amout of spam!
Check /usr/share/doc/sendmail-8.11.6/README.cf, section access_db for more information regarding this!
