The evolutionary contest between spam and spam control techniques parallels that between virus and antivirus software, with convincing echoes of the biological eponym. This white paper, with a title after my heart: "Spam: A Many Rendered Thing; An in-Depth Look at Current Trends in Spamming Techniques" looks at the variety of new techniques spammers use to outfox filters.
There is, of course, an odd and melancholy irony to all of this -- if the spammers succeed, they will remove all reason to use e-mail, whereupon they will be broadcasting to thin air.
