We probably already do this: but to make it not worth it to the spammers to send this sort of stuff, we'd need to adjust the behaviour of their OE-using normal targets.
And *that* is hard.

Anyone who doesn't want this spam is included in that "we", so no, "we" are not already doing this. Some of us are, some of us are not. If we stop thinking of "them" and "us" and see that all users of email who hate spam are "us", perhaps we can improve the situation.

I don't think many such people are going to be LWN subscribers :)
