I had this 6 months ago on a another mail system . If you use Cisco Routers
you can do connection tarring on the inbound, They give up when the
connection gets very slow. Unless it's a script and they guy is off watching
CNN

The other way is to see if the inbound IP is a Cable/DSL/Dialup , Enable a
Dialup-RBL for a few hours and he will get board when your mail server seems
to vanish from existence.

>To known users.

that's a bitch, as always.

you harvest the IPs from the imail log, and do tcp-block of the highest 
volume IPs and/or ClassCs at your packet filter (use PktFilter right on the 
Imail box).

and/or

do content-scanning where the rule-match action is DISCARD (accept and 
silently drop) rather than REJECT (don't accept).  You don't want to reject 
known virus msgs, since that makes you an accomplice in the virus 
propagation.
