And I would suggest that the first level of dealing with spam is by its traffic characteristics and administrative characteristics. In other words, while I am incredibly annoyed as a recipient of spam, I am most concerned by the potential of spam to produce denial of service, through mail bombs (original or retaliatory), looping spam software, exhausting spool space, etc. These are not content issues.
