Check if you are running Sendmail V5 or V8. If you are running V8 then you
can use a check_rcpt rule in your configuration file.
The MAPS TSI resource has a list of solutions to prevent your mailer being
used as a spam relay at http://maps.vix.com/tsi/ar-fix.html.
There are also a number of anti-spam tips pages at:

As a final note, a lot of people question whether sendmail is appropriate in a
firewall, due to its complexity.
