I don't know everything that the software spoken of does, but you can do a
fair amount without it, and your effort will be free.  I have good results
with the following:

A.  Put the header on the body of the spam in an outgoing msg.

B.  Put SPAM in the subject line of the outgoing msg.

C.  Send a copy to your ISP, and Postmaster at the originating domain (just
write Postmaster@xxxx.yyyy.  X and Y of course being the domain names).

An alternative is to send to a specific spam fighter email address at your
ISP, if they have one.  Many do.
