Read about genericstable and virtusertable in the sendmail doc.
They allow for users names mapping. Edit your m4 mc file and add:
FEATURE(`genericstable')dnl
FEATURE(`virtusertable')dnl
Depending on if you have 'always_add_domain' featured or not you might
have to add the domain to the users addresses, eg in my case:
virtusertable:
Jean-Francois.Malouin AT bic.mni.mcgill DOT ca malin
genericstable:
malin Jean-Francois.Malouin AT bic.mni.mcgill DOT ca
