I'm with incrediBill, they'll just make it so much harder for everyone to run their own email servers , and spammers will just find new ways. Like botnets.

Microsoft still can't come up with an idea how to block brute force dictionary attacks for what, 15+ years now in their OS? What do they know about email spam...

Below I think is a very good idea, though, why don't the big providers be required to send each user email every 6 months describing phishing, new techniques and how to protect yourself. That'll do this whole mess much more good IMHO.

incrediBill: I'm thinking about every 6 months people should be reminded how to avoid phishing and be re-tested to continue using those accounts.
