Finer control you have using the access_db

http://www.sendmail.org/m4/anti_spam.html

So taking a simple example, that you want to send through your Sendmail
host from your workstation with the fix private IP 192.168.0.5, then put
in /etc/mail/access

192.168.0.5    RELAY

and run "make -C /etc/mail". Relaying for that specific IP is
immediately possible.
