If I understood your problem correctly, the problem are spoofed
senders. I think you should look into SPF and similar techniques and
do not accept mail from your domains which do not come from one of
your mail servers. This is imho more a MTA configuration thing.

I think, a SA rule should work, too. Can you explain your problems
with that in more detail please? (Although I think SPF is the better
way to approach your problem.)
