[orobledillo]

Hi all,

I would like to send to /dev/null all mail receibed from a specifically host.

Any ideas?

Regards

Might depend on version of sendmail but I use the
access filr

someuser@whatever.com DISCARD

then I have to recompile the access file, I wrote a script so I don't have to remember the commands
#!/bin/ksh

makemap hash /etc/mail/access < /etc/mail/access

sleep 2

/sbin/service sendmail restart

ps -eaf|grep send

I try to use discard in access but I allways get "relaying to denied"

I have a 8.12.11 SendMail version and if I add in access my machine: 10.0.51.137 DISCARD

If you have sendmail DISCARD mail from your machine, of course relaying will be denied. You want to put the domain, ip or email address of the source you want to discard. You can also do this with a procmail filter.
