You might want to set the ConnectionRateThrottle parameter in Sendmail
(confCONNECTION_RATE_THROTTLE in sendmail.mc) quite low, like to around 3.
That delays connections if more than 3/second come in.  While it
still doesn't really prevent the DoS, it can smooth the load on the machine.
Or you can use Sendmail 8.13's more fine-grained rate_control features so
that any one IP address can't open too many connections too quickly.

But the better solution of blocking offending IPs in access.db is probably
a good one for now.
