A colleague asked me offlist about how to make a Sendmail secondary MX properly return 550 for invalid recipient addresses.
[snip] For those with an LDAP directory containing mailbox information, I'd recommend using sendmail's built-in LDAP capabilities. I've found it a good way to test for existence of mailboxes at border MTAs. My example (NOTE: I've pulled out the LDAP stuff from a rather complex .mc file, and it can be done in a more straightforward way without all of the other hacks I'm simultaenously supporting in my rulesets), LOCAL_CONFIGKldap_rcpt ldap -b dc=example,dc=com -h directory.example.com -T<TMPF> -v mail -k (&(objectClass=inetLocalMailRecipient)(!(inetUserStatus=deleted))(!(inetMailGroupStatus=deleted))(|(mail=%0)(mailAlternateAddress=%0)(mailEquivalen
