Take your host offline and stop accepting mail entirely, I'd say, would solve the problem entirely. You're on the Internet. Having random garbage thrown at your server all day is a part of that.
The useful tool fail2ban, normally used to ban ssh attackers, also has some postfix related jails that you can enable, which will automatically ban certain spammers based on the log entries they create.
