Well, greylisting helps, but there are two factors here: 1) This is
embedded images, so the e-mail is carrying the base64-encoded images as
part of the multi-part e-mail. 2) these are e-mails that
are "legitimate." Still spam, but it's from services where you've
signed up for something at some time, and they sell/give your e-mail to
thousands of other services.
