Virus filtering

Rate limit (+ script to auto terminate user) and smtp auth on outbounds

Separate inbound and outbound smtp relay. Don't let your inbound MX 
relay for your dialup pool (some trojans take the rDNS name / hostname 
of the infected box and do nslookup -q=mx domainname)

Ask AOL for an scomp () aol net feed - a lot of these trojan spams seem to 
target AOL users.

etc
