The problem with using network access bits to control mail access is
that you have to modify the deamon mailer to check each user for the
bits involved. Without modifying sendmail source you will not be able
to accomplish this. The configuration file simply doesn't take this
into account.

Before you go off writing patches to sendmail, think about the
structure of sendmail and try to make something we can all use (i.e.
make it a new feature to the sendmail.cf file).
