Dave,


Two high-volume, technical anti-spam mailing lists are

   SPAM-L     (LISTSERV@localhost)
and
   SPAMTOOLS  (majordomo@localhost)

Subscribe (digest format available, instructions are mailed to 
you when you subscribe, or check their Web pages) to those lists 
and read, read, read...

To return to your original suggestions : they have some merit, have
flaws, have been adopted at some places, have been vigorously criti-
sized by other admins, etc...
