I personally like a proactive approach on the ISP's part, such
as open relay checking and maintaining a local blacklist.
There are other approaches too, I am trying to decide exactly
what to implement on one of my servers right now.
The "tagged message" method is a reasonable method, but not
exactly the most polite thing for things such as mailing lists. If
everyone used that, people would conceivably receive thousands every
post they sent to a mailing list. There are other downsides to it.
