According to whois, 61.47.11.234 is owned by pacnet.
inetnum: 61.47.0.0 - 61.47.127.255
netname: PACNET

You could try emailing [log in to unmask] although responses vary from
'useful' to 'no one reads it'. You may also contact [log in to unmask]
and report your problem there. Are all the messages coming from
61.47.11.234? If so they could likely do something about it (block
it, greylist it, etc...)
smtp3.pacific.net.th is 203.121.130.116 (which is also ip-space leased
to pacnet). I can't find any spf records for them so its hard to say
where mail is *supposed* to come from; however smtp-outs for most
places need to have reverse dns (and 61.47.11.234 doesn't) because
MTAs are often picky (and no reverse DNS often means a residential
account which is likely to be a spambot).
