Sorry, I was afraid this might not be clear. I want to find a way to
reject/tag all messages that come From the syslang.net domain (I am that
domain) which are From a user which does not exist. I'm not talking about
messages coming in that have a From address that is not syslang.net.
One more example to be clearerer. This message came in from someplace in
Russia (maybe), to syslang.net and claims to come from bs at syslang.net.
I don't have a bs on my machine. If it helps, I'd even be willing to
create a file with a list of all of my valid account names.

So this idea is to reject all mail from invalid accounts that claim to be
coming from my own domain.

I'm all set here. Sendmail is fine. :-)
