Stop PHP nobody Spammers

PHP and Apache has a history of not being able to track which users are sending out mail through the PHP mail function from the nobody user causing leaks in formmail scripts and malicious users to spam from your server without you knowing who or where.

Watching your exim_mainlog doesn't exactly help, you see th email going out but you can't track from which user or script is sending it. This is a quick and dirty way to get around the nobody spam problem on your Linux server.
