Since spam isn't going away anytime soon, what is an email service provider to do? Image spam that gets through clogs mail servers with useless and dangerous emails, and then there still those spam-bots that seem to function like manure spreaders, just tossing more and more email out hoping to sprout one seed in a million.
So what is Message Partners doing about it. First, we've instituted Spam Traps. Populate your site or email posts with easily harvested addresses and configure our spam traps to block senders to these addresses. Since our spam traps use regular expression matching you can block whole classes of addresses, such as addresses that begin with numbers, or others that are popular in dictionary attacks. You should examine some of your maillogs to find addresses that are used in dictionary attacks or repetitive spam attacks. This alone will increase spam detection by a few percentage points.
