There are some tools for detecting these bad boys but the ones I know
about all plug into SpamAssassin.

A plugin that looks at the parameters of the image to help determine
spam-ness:

A plugin that OCRs images and then checks for spammy language.

I have no idea what could be done for people with individual mailers
trying to write rules for image spam.
