You make it socially unacceptable to run a server that emits spam. You make it socially unacceptable to work for a company that emits spam.

At an interview: "OK, I see you worked for an oil company, right, and then a porn company, fine -- oh, you worked for a spammer. Sorry, we're done. I don't know how this happened, I'll need to talk to HR about their filters."

The problem with that is to agree on what is acceptable social behaviour.

Trust me, lots of places would have issues with oil companies, others with porn and so one.
