to me, the issue is real and relevant to IETF and apps area is a good place to start discussing. I would suggest you to write an internet-draft describing first the problem and maybe/optional the solution space you are thinking.
if you don't know how to start writing an Internet-draft, either take a look at another one or see:

Because of widespread abuse of SMTP today in IPv4, the email industry is hesitant to move to IPv6 for sending anonymous email as the current techniques in use will not scale.

There are workarounds floating around but most of what we see today is that most people don't send mail over IPv6 and those that do know who they want to receive it from. The problem is that once IPv6 becomes mainstream, eventually we will "build a better spammer" and the problem of abuse would swamp email servers.
