Uhhh, suggesting some software to your admin based on answers you got on a
vague question? I only can imagine what the answers in his head will be.

Here is my suggestion: Have an honest conversation with your
administrator(s). Voice your concern that the amount of unsolicited mass
email (not unwanted messages! - big difference!) has increased. Given the
right amount of resources he will take the right measures.
