I found the problem but I'm not so sure how to fix it. Apparently the
spammer managed to Authenticate and relay email even though I disable
the SMTP authentication. Do I just tick the option Disable SMTP "AUTH"
reporting under the SMTP security option? Could it be a security loop
hold in Imail. I guess someone managed to guess the password for the
email account. Did I miss anything here?

Here is a copy of the log captured

03:31 23:38 SMTPD(000003DC) Authenticated
[EMAIL PROTECTED], session treated as local.

That's looks clean, if it really is like that as used by IMail. And none
of 
those are from or near the 210 Class A from which you had the attacks.

So delete all that from Imail, and put it in again, very carefully.

I doubt that source ip spoofing is the case, but at your edge router,
block 
spoofing of your internal IPs.  Do you have that already?
