If you are talking about your email-server being used to send spam, look up information
on how to close an open relay.
If you're fighting spam that you receive, spamassassin is probably a good idea. Or
at least worth having a look at.
I have little experience with sendmail, but for how to get postfix working with spamassassin,
this might help: http://jessen.ch/articles/spamassassin-and-postfix

Also, additional to Per's indications, you can try MailScanner package
with an anti-virus program running on your mail server.
F-prot for linux is a very good choice for that.
I actively use all those programs and they work great.
Have a nice day.

Also look up the access db on sendmail.org.
