What log file is that?  My mail log doesn't have anything like that, but
of course, I'm not running the smtp server; I'm using comcast's server.

hit the SPAM button also sent me an angry email, but it doesn't help

Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he is
supposed to be doing at the moment.
