That's what I'm afraid of  as I can't check the  sendmail config file 
for that server I prefer to just reject all mail
sent to non existant users on that domain to avoid possible problems.... 
becuase if  legit mail gets lost I'll have a
serious problem becuase I use that email server for my more private 
emails sush as financial data who I don't want
to go to my european server because of the new ISP legislation that 
forces the ISP to keep a record of all email
adresses I comunicate with...So therefore I have rented a hosting server 
outside the e.u. so those records are kept
private.
