Your assumptions are more or less correct, but is cron/checkdbs running? It should be deleting all but the current day's hold_and_cmd_autoresponses entries from every config.pck every time it runs. If you're getting spam to a list from a million addresses a day, you really do have a spam problem :( So I'm guessing that cron/checkdbs is not running or something is going wrong with that process.
