I hvae installed a redhat7.1 as SMTP server with sendmail; every body now can send mail like this:

From : sender@bogusDNS.bogus

the sendmail is accepting the mail for the delievery with the bogus address @bogusDNS.bogus !!!!

yesterday i have installed slackware 7.1 with sendmail as SMTP server and .....guess... it does not accepte this bogus DNS :-)) .
but what i must change in the redhat's sendmail.cf to force sendmail to make a reverse lookup for the DNS of the sender ??

thanks in advance ;-)
