How can I disable MAILER(local)? I have a sendmail host whose task is
to do nothing but send mail, I don't want it to receive much less
deliver anything locally.
Mail originates both remotely (via port 25) as well as locally (via
various scripts).

Rather than going this route, why not make Sendmail not be responsible
for any domains. That why it is a send only system. Just make sure
that the emails that you are sending are from a valid email address as
more and more spam filters require a valid (envelope) sending email address.

I tried this (removed Cwlocalhost), but mail sent locally to users
(without specifying domain) are still delivered to /var/spool/mail.
Any ideas?
