Just a quick note:
Blocking the sources of messages deemed offensive is a "negative reputation" approach, easily bypassed by creating a new source name.
I agree and fully understand this. But in a situation where a remailer operator might realize that spamming is occurring, it could provide quick, temporary relief from the pain and embarrassment of athlete's spamming. :) If 20 spams get thru and there are 200 more on the way, source blocking can stop this at least temporarily.
