What exactly do you do with your spam? You should be reporting it to spam
authorities so that spammers get their accounts banned and cancelled. 

Network operators, ISP's, ASP's etc all have strict policies in place for
network abuse. If you just delete your spam without reporting it you're not
hitting the spammers where it hurts.

If you want reporting tips I can send you some links to opensource software
which help with this.

Regards,

Michael.
