Sendmail K command regex: adding exclusion/negative lookahead to regex -a@MATCH
I'm trying to get some exclusions into our sendmail regular expression for the K command. The following configuration & regex works:
So we are blocking anything@subdomain.domain.us but not anything@domain.us. I'd like to add exclusions for cities and schools so to allow user@ci.somedomain.us and user@subdomain.[state].us. (note that [state] means 1 of the 50 states including DC).
This regex with negative lookahead syntax is not working (using CA for California as a test):
I get this error:
I'm pretty sure that sendmail's R & K commands do not support negative look-aheads. So if anyone can help re-write the regex in a sed-friendly format I'd be grateful! Here is a link to K command switches. Any suggestions on how to get the negative lookahead to work in sendmail?

What do you think of this regex to match IP address? I have been reading up on regex and have seen some really long ones for IP. Would this fail in any scenarios?

re_comp
RE_COMP(3) Linux Programmer's Manual RE_COMP(3)NAME
re_comp, re_exec - BSD regex functions
SYNOPSIS
#define _REGEX_RE_COMP
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <regex.h>
char *re_comp(const char *regex);
int re_exec(const char *string);
DESCRIPTION
re_comp() is used to compile the null-terminated regular expression pointed to by regex. The compiled pattern occupies a static area, the
pattern buffer, which is overwritten by subsequent use of re_comp(). If regex is NULL, no operation is performed and the pattern buffer's
contents are not altered.
re_exec() is used to assess whether the null-terminated string pointed to by string matches the previously compiled regex.
RETURN VALUE
re_comp() returns NULL on successful compilation of regex otherwise it returns a pointer to an appropriate error message.
re_exec() returns 1 for a successful match, zero for failure.
ATTRIBUTES
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).
