Sendmail full of SPAM

Options

Hi,

So basically, I've got a server with +/- 20 websites on it.

Linux Version :

Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Update 9)

Running sendmail version :

8.12.11.20060308

It's not an open relay (e.g. I telnet to the domain and can't send mail through it). But I'm getting average 5 emails per 10 seconds, consistently.

How would I go as to find the problem?

ps -ax | grep sendmail

19435 ? S 0:01 sendmail: accepting connections
19446 ? S 0:00 sendmail: Queue runner@01:00:00 for /var/spool/clientmqueue

What else do you need from me to help?

ALL i need from the mail server is to be able to send outgoing mail. For the websites. No incoming mail.
