Over the past year, I have seen a rapid rise in the number of spammers who sign up for email lists. Double Opt-in then sends an email to the spammer which is rejected. Some ISPs are now taking a strong look at failed emails and are starting to block domains which send a lot of them.

I think it would be a good idea to block known bad email addresses from signing up to begin with.

I would like to see an integration between RSMAIL (the sign up module) and anti-spam sites such as www.stopforumspam.com/ and others. These sites issue API keys which can be used to check the validity of email addresses prior to sign-up.

Barring that, new and different Captcha schemes or rotating Captchas might help.
