To solve 100%, yes impossible. To reduce greatly, no. I've found the spam filter included with Trac 0.12 to be very effective. It combines measures such as Captcha and Bayesian filtering with online spam filtering information from the likes of TypePad and Akismet to decide what is and isn't spam. My Trac gets spammed 50 times a day but less that one a week makes it through the filter. I've never seen a false positive.
