  • Allow local senders only for specific accounts?

    From Thorsten Glaser@21:1/5 to All on Wed Apr 2 20:36:53 2025
    Hi,

    consider I have an alias that is used to distribute certain
    mail messages, on a server that is externally reachable and
    accepts mails to local accounts generally, but I don’t want
    to accept mails to that specific account (alias really) via
    the internet, only via /usr/sbin/sendmail or [::1].

    Is there a way to configure this?

    Thanks in advance,

    A really old web page has some examples:
