Thanks to all. For now I've stopped it using iptables. I tried stopping it at my router without success, yet another reason to replace it! I will also report it to abuse@covad.net.
My issues have gotten worse. Apparently over the last few days my ip address has gotten blacklisted. No idea why. Even though I have a commercial class cable modem service, my ip is residential because it comes to my house. But I've been running my mail server for several years and never had an issue.
Your IP address, 70.62.90.185, is listed on zen.spamhaus.org, and you can probably go to their web site to see why it's listed.
This address is on the PBL because Time Warner says it shouldn't be sending e-mail. He will have to use roadrunners smarthost, and see if they allow it. If they consider it a residential account, their AUP probably bans running any servers anyway, so he will have to deal with them.
