Rejecting spam is not a good idea. Most of the time you end up spamming some poor sod who has been joe-jobbed. Discard spam. Don't add the to problem.
The problem with discarding is that in situations like the one described the sender will have no idea the mail was not received.
There's little problem with rejecting, as opposed to bouncing, messages that you think are spam. That means doing it during the SMTP session, before you accept the message. It will not usually result in messages to a joe-job victim, since spammers will not send bounces in response to a rejection.
