[H-GEN] How to block this kind of email?

Hi all,

I am using sendmail with no spam filtering backend (i.e. no spamassassin, etc). It delivers to a Cyrus mailstore, if you care.

This morning I received the following email. It's very clearly a virus, and I obviously wasn't stupid enough to open the attachment.

Surely I can configure sendmail to reject mail from a server that *claims* to be walters.id.au, and isn't? Please help me out here.

Thanks,
Sarah Walters
