I was told to check out:
http://www.sendmail.org/antispam.html
http://www.spam.abuse.net/spam/
http://www.informatik.uni-kiel.de/%7Eca/email/check.html
One suggestion was to install sendmail v8.8.6.
I had a look at http://www.sendmail.org/antispam.html and
it had the solution that I wanted.
Thanks to everyone! Spammers - watch out, 'cause she's
armed and dangerous :)
