Subject: [fwtk-users] Protecting smap against -d attacks?

Setup: firewall running smap; sendmail is the internal MTA.

Problem: we are repeatedly attacked with floods of mails with "Subject: 
-d". Although that very old-fashioned attack fails, it causes a DoS 
because it fills a disk on the central server.

Is there already a patch to smap to drop mails based on Subject?
