Is there a better way to stop this crap?  I operate about 100 domains,

MAIL FROM: <$english_dictionary{rand()}(_at_)mydomain(_dot_)com> RET=FULL
RCPT TO: <$english_dictionary{rand()}(_at_)$bouncespamdomain{rand()}>

Hmmm, that implies to me that you are running "catch-all" addressing on those 
two domains.  I did that for about a month on a few of mine - and quickly 
turned it off since I could not "legitamitely" refuse any mail for the domain 
in question...
