Indeed.  Wow.  I thought you were one of the Good Guys.

Then quarantine it, and review it manually.  This is no different 
than having a backup MX that has accepts mail your main MX would 
reject.  You have to whitelist mail coming from the forwarder/backup 
MX, and deal with it.  IMHO there's no excuse for knowingly 
generating collateral spam.
