www.sendmail.org could be a good starting point if you're using sendmail. I can't be more specific than that right now because I don't know what your target mail scheme is and I don't know if you want to stay with sendmail or try another mta such as exim or postfix.
You might also want to look at ports/mail/rblcheck or somethign similar to help control who your server listens to. -- Ben W.
