It's easy.
Block all ports that you don't need with a firewall or behind your
router.
Take care that you don't accept messages for non local destinations
from unauthorized computers, you can do this by allowing  relaying
only for users who identified themselves properly (smtp
authentication, pop before smtp, whatever)
