new threads don't have this in the headers:

  In-Reply-To: <446f9a7b0601190102ocbcf98en at mail.gmail.com>

unless someone typically authors "new" posts by replying to an existing
post, deleting all the text and then starting a "new" thread. I could live
with such posts being denied!!!

But, I reckon a perl script that bins to /dev/null would be harsh, IMHO.
