We are testing an application that sends out emails for notifications and such. What I need to do is configure sendmail to take all the mail that is being sent to it to put it in a local mailbox for deletion. I do not want the mail to acutally go out to the internet.

Thanks
 
Sendmail doesn't deliver mail to inboxes because it's an MTA or mail transport system. It's primary function is to move mail between systems. Delivery to inboxes is handled by the LDA or local delivery agent e.g. procmail.
