It's a sendmail thing, but it must be so standard that someone's going to
know how to do it surely?

I just need my box to reject attempts to post through it (eg: other hosts
trying to post mail to other hosts via my host) as a basic and I
understand common anti-spam measure. Naturally, I still want this box to
be able to receive mail being sent to local user accounts on it, and I
want to be able to send mail from those local user accounts.

It's a SuSE box, with sendmail.cf currently sitting as written out by
YaST, so a very standard configuration. I was able to post from my laptop
(behind a masquerading host here) through the remote server - ie: that
server being configured here as my SMTP server - to my Hotmail account.

How do I stop this and get that "We do not relay" error that I've seen
coming from other servers?

TIA
