There are some simple ways to alleviate the issue. Nothing effective has been implemented by SOE yet. So far as I can figure, there's no way for us to implement these via the UI. SOE needs to step up to the plate though, cause it is annoying as all get out.
I'd like to see an option that blocks tells from people not on your friends list if their under lvl 10 and you're not. -- It wouldn't totally remove spam, but it would make it more time-consuming and thus more costly for spammers to be able to solicit such large groups.
How about a AiM like /tell throttle? If someone sends too many tells too fast to too many people, revoke their /tell rights and alert a GM.
