If you know the domains of the spam traps, you can set your policy to
drop those messages silently. I think the issue is that you're dealing
with joe-jobs, which is *not* the job of TMDA to handle.

You might want to include SPF or RBL detection at the MTA, as well as
other common-sense steps like rejecting mail from MTAs without a valid
HELO or resolvable hostname.

FWIW, SPF and domainkeys were designed specifically to prevent joe-jobs,
but neither is widely adopted. YMMV.
