A virus is a virus, once a signature is made it's effectivly dead. All these
phishing emails (i.e. paypal, Your Bank, ebay) are identical, and also have 
signatures.
-- ClamAV reports them just like a virus alert. So it would at least kill 
zombies
that are sending the same old junk over and over again.

Make it that a person can only register, once per day, per IP. That should
kill spammers that try to register 20 email addresses in one go.
