InfoWorld: Can e-mail be saved? Paul Boutin. Instead of tinkering with ever more complex anti-spam filters and gateways, it's time to rethink the way e-mail works in the enterprise.

the way to save email, and this is very clear, block all subnetwork port 25 activity not going through your mail server. do this on all networks, and manage those networks appropriately. this will more or less stop most spam, and then you can prosecute those others via paper trail.
