Generally, someone's bad behavior will speak for itself in that the more egregious their spamming, the more URI & RBL blacklists they will appear on. Also, use of spammer's obfuscation techniques or sending mail from a spam gang's server also speaks for itself. But I do hate the idea of someone sending out < 10 unsolicited but hand-typed e-mails being treated the same as a spammer sending out 10,000 unsolicited and impersonal e-mails per day... but somehow I think that this is already taken care of in spite of what some of the more aggressive mail administrators have said today.
