To continue along this line of thought...

Suppose a particular message is addressed to ten users.  Nine of the users 
agree that it is spam.  The tenth user disagrees.

Would it be a defensible position to reject the email anyway, and tell the 
tenth user "sorry, you were outvoted... you can tell the person to send email 
to you directly, rather than to you and nine other people"?
