this could easily make life annoying for mailing lists or busy corporate 
networks. one would have to do some content analysis of the emails to decide 
what to do, and not only is that non-trivial but people really don't like it 
when you drop legitimate email =)

of course, it's not business connections that make up most of the spam these 
days. those are easy to track down and have shut down. the problem is 
botnets.
