You could greylist by IP of the email addresses, this way you block spoofed
addresses. I know that this is not a cbm-hacker topic, but I can provide
specific details if anyone wants them on how to do this with a sendmail server.
btw - I do not get any spam as you have described, but ling.gu.se is
greylisted on my mailserver, dynamically, and can only come through the one
location at a time. There is a delay when the IP's change, but usually
this is not an issue.
