There are a couple of milters.  The one I use is milter-sender.  There is
another called milter-ahead that does the call ahead to your Exchange server
or other final destination.  milter-sender also does the call ahead.

Steve Swaney posted about a sendmail milter that addresses this. I haven't
had a chance to test it inhouse yet, but it would do the job on a gateway.
The other option is to look at something like vispan which allows you to
throttle/block Ips/hosts sending you inordinate quantities of rubbish.
