Not matter what you do or prevent doing, Spam will always be there. Software is a variable and Hardware is a fix.
Any prevention made on Spam through software, Sender can change to prevent the prevention.
A good firewall has to be hardware not software. Full lockdown is the only option.
Bill Gates unfortunately is a victim in his own fate. At least he is trying, has anyone else volunteer.
