There are several possibilities to fight spam:

Statistical methods try to categorize emails based on header, subject and/or content. To be succesful the user has to classify emails
during a learning phase.
|
|
Another method is to make use of the user community and build a list of email senders that have been revealed as spammers.
Not so long ago this method had been in the news, because someone had put GMX on this list. For a while no GMX user was able
to emails to inboxes that were protected by software using this approach.

A useful approach is the classification of emails using white and black lists and keywords. This can be combined with an analasis of email header
and content to classify spam emails.
