|Ideally I'd like to be able to ban any mail from the student machine

|mail came from in a multi-host environment?

The answer to this one is yes!

By default the authorise program receives "$g" as the from address from
sendmail. If instead you change this to "$s" - i.e. the sender domain
(which includes the actual host) then you can authorise on that.

So, you could put something in your localise.sh such as:

	ed mailers.m4 <<'EOF'
	/authorise janet/s/$g/$s/
	w
	q
	EOF
