I believe that the best way to handle spam is by using an MTA based spam

At delivery time, use a Sieve script to put all of the spam into a folder, or
discard it, or keep it in INBOX, or bounce it back, or call you pager, etc.
You should *not* bounce spam as the sender is always forged (or often
enough that it's safe to say always). Either keep it, discard it, or
reject it at SMTP time.

Second the 'not bounce' as too often the spam-bastards even have clever
forgeryways to utilize a mis-directed 'bounce' to propagate their garbage...
