One of the most effective ways to block spam is to 'bounce it'. This throws the spam back at the sender as many times as they try and spam you. It affixes a header which tells the mailer there is no one at the address.

It takes manually setting it the first time, but with KMail all you have to do is reply as 'bounce'. Soon no more spammers.

It's free with Linux.

snooker, this idea doesn't really work. One of the most common spammer strategies is to use a valid email address that belongs to someone else as the "From" address. Your scheme will simply send one more email to this poor sucker. But they are already buried under the 10,000 bounced emails that came "back" from dead or nonexistant "sent to" addresses.
