Does that make sense? We've been experimenting a PL (Private Listcode) methodology for these scenarios. Specifically, all messages for a particular user (domain usually) are blocked unless a PL code is present in the message. The PL code is a random sequence of characters like a password. The group that uses the code freely passes it around between them. Since no spammer has the code it can't be abused. The code usually goes into a signature. If the code becomes compromised then a new code is made up. We usually create a PL code in Sniffer, but the methodology works without it - In Declude you would use WHITELIST ANYWHERE plcode, and block everything else.
