That .sig is problematic beyond just its content; it is 12 lines long and
adds almost 1kb to each of your messages (probably longer than the contents
of many messages). Refer to RFC 1855 or any other netiquette document for
further information.

This approach tends to cause a lot of headaches for people who legitimately
want to contact you; I do not recommend it. Try bogofilter, spamassassin
and the like instead. I receive over 100 spam emails per day, and less than
5% make it past bogofilter, with zero false positives so far.
