I really like Mailwasher . You can set up wildcards that kill tons of spam. I set my wilds as *hotmail*, *yahoo*,*excite*. That took care of about 80% of my junk, hehe.

They need to set up a www.donotspam.gov website. What will probably happen is most telemarketers and spammers will be based OCONUS.

I'll second mailwasher.
Once you have it installed, exchange your blacklist with all your friends, and everyone get's the benefit of it.
DO NOT bounce anything back, or you're just contributing to the problem.
