What's wrong with spamassassin or tmda(?). I like the latter approach -
a whitelist, and blacklist. If you are whitelisted, it allows it, and if
you are blacklisted, it dumps it. Anyone else gets a reply saying "If
you are really out there and really want to send mail to <whoever> just
click 'reply'. If no reply comes, the spam goes silently after 3-5
days. That way, you can be fairly sure you have a lead on whoever spams
you.
