Correct.  For more (and copious) information, see news.admin.net-abuse.email.

If you complain enough to abuse@agis.net, they will refuse mail from your
(account|domain).  

One option is to refuse mail from Agis netblocks (see n.a.n-a.e for specific
addresses) but this doesn't help for spammers who bounce mail off of random
mail servers.
