I'm not sure what you mean by "Spam Attacker" but with some Sendmail
tinkering, you can use any of the various DNS blocking lists such as
ORDB, SPEWS, Monkeys open proxies list, SpamCop BL, etc.

Jeff Lasman can certainly help you with it. 

There are also some old posts on using Spam Assassin
<http://www.spamassassin.org/> which I believe most use to tag and
filter the spam. (I think there's a .pkg somewhere for it.) Personally,
I prefer to see it rejected and save the bandwidth. e.g.
Jan 28 05:47:00 admin sendmail[16630]: h0SBl0L16630:
ruleset=check_relay, arg1=[218.236.132.96], arg2=218.236.132.96,
relay=[218.236.132.96], reject=553 5.3.0 Mail from 218.236.132.96 Email
blocked using spamhaus

There are also some country specific blckhole lists, if you know you'll
never get email from certain parts of the world that might help.
