If you're using sendmail and it's the main mail server (not a gateway for exchange), sendmail sends out a log message warning of a RCPT TO: flood (typical of people trying to send to too many recipt's at once.)

I have a script that watches the log file and instantly (it runs all the time and is EVENT driven) blackholes the IP for as long as you like... you can either expire the entries (like I do after a week) or build a rich database for your own DNSBL... :)

Let me know if you'd like the script (it's in TCL - so it's easy to read/change) and I'll send it to you...
