Hello
I am running Sendmail (setting up) 8.9.3 on RH6.1

Everytime when I try to sent to an invalid username I receive a message
username unkown, which is true of course.
When I do this at e.g. earthlink, I do not get such, the message just
bounches back stating that it is undeliverable.

In my opinion that is a more graceful way of handling this. How can I do
that, is it some FEATURE or so?

Thanks for your help,
Piet
