we could always implement an email filtering system, that will only allow
you to receive email from known people.  could use PGP signed messages,
anything which you dont already have configured just gets returned to
sender.  hell it seems like this'll brake RFC compliance (probably, just a
guess), but then the standards arent quite working the way we would like,
and hence need rectifying.
