The mail logs where filling with errors such as:

(delivery temporarily suspended: lost connection with 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1] while sending RCPT TO)

Stop spam with a combined approach

Spam is the ban of any system administrators life and many people have taken it for granted that they must simply live with a certain level of spam in their day-to-day lives. However this does not have to be the case. A combined spam filtering approach is what is needed to end the spam problem. We find that a combination of blacklists and greylisting is the magic bullet that kills spam dead.
