Unfortunately sendmail fills the syslog with messages like that below
when only the rset is used....

Jun 13 21:55:43 external.mrgordon.net sendmail[4100]: [ID 801593
mail.info] j5DLthju004100: monitor.mrgordon.net [192.168.2.240] did
not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MTA
(Going through the mailbox in preparation for the next release ...)

How about this one:

  [smtp]
    send "vrfy postmaster\r\nquit\r\n"
    expect "220"
    options banner
    port 25

Works with qmail here ... hopefully it will work with Sendmail also.
