You can also use regular expressions to bar mail. For example,
sender_reject_recipients = ^.*[0-9]{2}@(hotmail|aol)\.com$
would reject all mail with a local-part ending in two digits from Shitmail
or AOL. Very useful, they're nearly all spamming fuckwits. Or ...
sender_reject_recipients = ^.*[0-9]{3}@
which would reject mail with local-parts ending in three digits from
_any_ domain. You should probably be careful with that, there are bound
to be genuine addresses matching that. (ph10@???... would if it had
one more digit, for example.)

Just be grateful you haven't got to try to understand Sendmail's
config file :-)
