WOW Talk about doing it the hardway........

I think you need to take a serious look at LDAP mail routing in Sendmail.

I recently setup LDap routing on a businesses front end MX mail servers
(Sendmail) and their rejected bounces went from 3000 a day down to 5.

With LDAP mail routing all mail is rejected at the MX server unless it's for
a legitimate user and the best part is once you have LDAP configured it's
trivial to maintain.

Oh! and LDAP is case insensitive.
