Apache - php - email hack

One of my customers is somehow being hacked but we can't figure it out. Somehow someone is injecting 1000s of emails into qmail.

In the apache error log, I keep seeing this but it doesn't provide an IP address:
sh: /uname: No such file or directory
sh: /echo: No such file or directory
sh: /id: No such file or directory
sh: /cd: No such file or directory
sh: /cd: No such file or directory

More fun stuff:
qmail-inject: fatal: unable to parse this line:
bcc: [email protected],[email protected],[email protected],^M
[email protected],[email protected],[email protected],^M
[email protected],[email protected],[email protected],^M

The 71. IP address is a legit customer.

Can anyone help me here?

Thanks,
Tom
