Most if not all of the new worm/trojans have their own mini-smtp server built in. They don't need a mail server to send you mail.

The thing is, how does one deal with the issue at hand?

When all is said and done, the entire problem would just go away if people stopped using Windows. I haven't used Windows for years, and have zero problems with this, except for 'net storms caused by stoopid amounts of traffic between windows boxen.
