This is more of a sendmail question than a bsd one... maybe someone here 
can help me.

I regularly get e-mail from a person that I would rather not get e-mail 
from. And I would like sendmail just to toss e-mail from that person for 
me into the trash... like never deliver it. And, as far as they are 
concerned (the sender) the e-mail was delivered as usual.

Is there some sendmail rulesets I can use to define a database to 
accomplish this? A quick glance through the sendmail book has revealed 
no clues.

Please help.
