In my case, telling my customer to change his configuration is not and
acceptable option. I need my sendmail to be more forgiving.

Hmmm. I guess I need to convert from sendmail to smail as I can't
find anything in the sendmail documentation on this. Is there any
other option? I think I tried smail first on my mail server machine,
but I thought I had problems getting it to act as a relay for other
nodes on my network, which are running sendmail. Yuck.
Thanks for the suggestions.
