I've found all kinds of explanations of the check_rcpt HACK, but no explanation as to where i put it. Does it go in sendmail.cf somewhere? Where? Does it get listed in sendmail.mc? But then how do i get the .m4 to relate to it? sendmail! argh
Depends on what you are trying to accomplish. I suggest building your sendmail.cf using M4. You mention the check_rcpt ruleset, which hints that you are trying to block spam. If this be the case I would look at this page: http://www.sendmail.org/m4/anti-spam.html It describes M4 features for blocking spam. These features utilize the check_rcpt, check_relay, etc rulesets. When you generate your sendmail.cf the rulesets will be created automatically and you can then control their functionality via text or database files. I can send you a copy of our M4 config for example.
