   A good place to start is:

   Jacqueline Craig
   "The worsening problem of spam"
   http://istpub.berkeley.edu:4201/bcc/Summer98/gen.spamintro.html

which includes links to two companion articles: one from Seth
Novogrodsky that presents ideas for reducing the incidence of spam in
your personal e-mail (including links to prominent anti-spam sites on
the 'Net), and a second, from Jacqueline, Bernie Tower, and Michele
Tomkin, discusses configuration options which may help reduce the
incidence of spam in Majordomo mailing lists that you administer.
