Using IMail db. I will probably use IMGate down the road, but since I'm
not a FreeBSD guru and the situation was dire enough that I didn't have
the time to work through setting up IMGate (and I didn't have a machine
available to run it), I ended up getting a trial of Alligate and it
immediately improved the situation. Have been running problem free
since Friday afternoon.

Upon further investigation, the majority of the inbound emails are

service.
Len's right about the load-shedding capability of a gateway. Still,
66,000 bad address validations (or 66,0000 minus the legits) is
totally cake for IMail using a local (Reg) database IME. Are you using
SQL or AD?
