There are still several less draconian ways of savagely reducing spam and viruses which are not in widespread use. For example, the recieving mail server can go through the motions of replying to the email and then bail out at the point of sending the message body. This would eliminate most kinds of spam relays and more than half of the forged virus mail all by itself. An even simpler method is to have your email server discard or quarantine any executable attachment. If you *must* send an executable, wrap it in something else and include instructions for unwrapping it.
