Is this true.  I understood the firewall has to be open to allow
sendmail to accept email from the internet, and that could be email for
the domain, or email for other domains, and the firewall can't
differentiate.  Which is why sendmail needs to be configured to not
accept email for domains other than those that are specifically
intended.
