It looks as if you have never run sendmail. And have never had
To kill 500 sendmail processes trying to time out due to wrong
Email addresses, when attackers think they are cleverer.
Please do consider that there are users without root-rights
Who also run services, and they cannot modify sendmail settings.
As of this, a new command a la DENYMAIL add|del|list to prevent
Certain email addresses from being used at registration processes
Would moreover be fine.
SCNR.
