Hi,
a) it might be possible to enforce valid sender through webserver config .... so it does not say
anonymous@hosting.com but rather shows the actual domain
b) once domains are identified correctly, you might replace the /usr/sbin/sendmail by a wrapper
that performs rate limiting and/or alerting
c) both you andyour client domains should receive bounces
d) you should educate your clients about email form best practices

I would think that rate limiting per sender of say 2 messages a minute
might discourage spammers from using your system for outgoing email.
Just a thought.

You can also reconfigure your MTA to restrict sending of spam per connection and or per IP or per domain or per minute.
Postfix and sendmail could do these jobs so far.

Thanks for your kind answer.
I have additional question.
>b) once domains are identified correctly, you might replace the
>/usr/sbin/sendmail by a wrapper
this is a good idea..
Do you have any recommendable wrapper program about sendmail?
Thanks again for your time..
