We see these from time to time too.  The most you can do without risk
of over-reacting is follow-up with a note to the upstream provider.
Typically they'll have an "abuse" account i.e., abuse@mci.net
specifically for this.

If that doesn't stop the probing then it's only due diligence to add
them to your filters, either within sendmail 8.85+ or at the router
(you DO have both don't you?).

Here are a few worthy of note:

	141.63.64.94   phf hacker, scanner
	199.203.214    Elron Technologies (NETBLK-ELRON-C-BLK1)
	202.217.200    INTELLIGENT TELECOM INC, ad.jp
	204.157.255    Harris Marketing (NETBLK-SAVOYNET-BLK-204-157), AGIS/Net99
	205.231.112    UUNET Technologies, Inc. (NETBLK-UUNETCBLK228)
	205.240.148    Phoenix Data Systems (NETBLK-SPRINT-CDF097)
	206.50.195     DMPL Infomart - Dallas (NETBLK-ONRAMP-DMPL) ONRAMP-DMPL
	207.14.174.51  Globalkey, Inc. (NETBLK-SPRINT-CF0EAF)
	208.199.92.16  Publicity Providers, Inc. (NETBLK-UU-208-199-92)
