mazz
my server is forwarding spam for some nigerian spam monkies,
the planet poeple are pissed about it.

I have sendmail stopped on the sever, I kind of want to send my own mail but its not that important.
is there anything else i can do to stop the spammers?

i have sendmail stopped and i did chmod 000 on sendmail and the conf. but theplanet poeple still claim the server is sending spam.

I also have named running on the server.
apache + mysql and php and modperl

is there a line i can put in that says put all mail in dev/null no matter what or how you got it.
