With getting email from only one source, I used ipchains to add a rule to block all
connections to
port 25 except from the single source address. I do that with my mail server. I only
want deliveries
from my ISP who is forwarding all mail to my server.
Most likely, you can do the reverse. Look at the logs to see if it's a single address
mail bombing
you and block them out (reject all connections to port 25 from that address)
Oh.. You want specifics ipchains commands... I need to look it up and will post soon.
But hopefully this may give you some hints to get started while I look them up.

I asked the same thing in reverse early this week and got no answer. If
I understand you want to set SMTP to block mail destined to a valid user,
from source -blank-. Is this right?
What I asked for was the reverse. I want to set SMTP to accept mail
destined to a valid user, from source -blank- and local only and blocked
for all other external sources.
Hopefully we will both get a reply with the correct answer soon.
