6. More info would be useful.
what kind of servers, etc.

On my "no-name" domain, I've turned off my catch-all account and now return all non-known user mail without having to download the whole msg.

The point is that on only one of my private domains, this week alone I've turned away over *7,000* emails from some "dictionary" spammer...

This is getting ugly, and the government is too busy tracking down teens trading Metallica MP3's and mediocre movies to track down phishing scams, identity theft hackers and this crap.

The attacks are coming from what must be "Zombie" computers, as they are coordinated at times yet come from different ISP's from around the country.

IF you're using sendmail (another poster seems to think you're running Microsoft) I'd installed the realtime blacklist utilities, but I really can't get into it unless I were to know more of what you're running there.
