Problem with squirrelmail and sendmail queues

Hi,

I have a problem that my queue is increasing because huge amount of
spam generated through apache@localhost and I don't understand a way
to stop it. My front end is squirrelmail and I see spam generated and
the mail sever gets many Mail daemons and deferd mail. And may queue
is nearly 4000-5000 every hour. I would like to know if some body has
faced the same problem and help me out.

The headers of the spam mail headers look like this:
from xxx (xxxx [172.16.1.11])by xxx (8.13.1/8.13.1) with ESMTP id
