	I'm trying to figure out how to stop some spam from hitting my site, and 
have yet to figure it out. From the looks of things, it's like the spam 
generator being used is basically hitting a mass bulk of my users in an 
alphabetic approach. It even hits names in our /etc/aliases file. Is there 
some way these people are doing this, and is there a way to stop it? Here's 
a look at what my mail log showed me...

Mar 31 14:34:09 zoe2 sendmail[18256]: OAA18115: 
to=<user1@iserve.net>,<user2@iserve.net>,<user3@iserve.net>, 
delay=00:00:47, xdelay=00:00:13, mailer=local, relay=local, stat=Sent

This of course has been edited, but the user[x] would be the actual 
username, and these were all alphabetic in order, and each entry contained 
about 25+ addresses. It doesn't hit all of my users, and it shows itself to 
be coming from the mail-daemon....

Any help would be appreciated in this matter, as this is getting really 
annoying, and I'm not sure what the deal is. We are running sendmail 8.9.3 
currently, and yes, and upgrade is on my todo list.
