James Lick makes some great points on what can be done i.e. rate limiting,
outbound scanning and account lockout. But the problem is getting the
cooperation from ISPs to put in the time and effort. At the very least,
As was said before, this evolution of the spammers is a Good Thing. It
means there will be less spam, and not very spoofed.
What it also means is that ISP's pipes may take less of a beating, but
their servers will be over-whelmed.
ISP's will take action, or lose. It's not a "go figure how to convince
them" type of thing. They will get there on their own.
