When spammers themselves were asked what would stifle their work their answer was "authentication."

I agree. Authentication is the only way to make a real dent in the spam problem. If you eliminate address spoofing then you force spammers into the open and they are easier to stop. Any message which can't be properly authenticated would be black-holed.

The hardest part of this will be getting a critical mass of ISP's to implement the system.
