Check those IPs against: www.robtex.com/rbl
Choose your favorite blacklists (test them, some of them provide too many false 
positives) and
implement with them DNSBL/RBL in your postfix. Also, SPF and greylisting make a 
good job.

Additionally, I recall a Netfilter/iptables module that does dnsbl, too, but... 
I'd not recommend it.
