You still need an entry in /etc/mail/access such as:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]    RELAY
server.mydomain.org     RELAY

and do a makemap hash /etc/mail/access > /etc/mail/access.db and restart
sendmail for this feature to work. If this is the only local address
you'll be using, disable the FEATURE from your .mc file, you'll be
running a much more secure system. In general,
relay_unresolvable_domains is not a good config option to enable on any
box connected to the Wild & Woolly Web.
Of course, you also need the appropriate entries in
/etc/mail/local-host-names and /etc/mail/relay-domains as well as an
entry in your .mc file defining your local domain such as:
LOCAL_DOMAIN(`mydomain.org')dnl
