A huge reduction in spam would come about from simply listing correct/acceptable email addresses for you. 99% of spam comes with forged from and to headers. If the To: header doesn't contain one of your vaild email addresses, OR a valid email address of one of the mailing lists you are willingly subscribed to, mark it as spam and just bounce it there and then.
