Why don't you keep the mail in the queue and make the queue directory big
enough? Since the deferred queue is hashed, and the qmgr skips over mail for
non-deliverable hosts you don't suffer a big performance impact!

You can flush individual domains using "sendmail -qRsite".

from "man sendmail":

-qRsite

Schedule immediate delivery of all mail that is queued for the named
site. Depending on the destination, this uses "fast flush" service, or it
has the same effect as sendmail -q. This is implemented by connecting
to the local SMTP server. See smtpd(8) for more information about the
"fast flush" service.
