82% of email is spam
1. These "unique" subjects are only to get around mail filters with SMTP. I don't think those type of filters will be as necessary with IM2000.
2. In the long run it's no real disadvantage over SMTP even if you *do* have to store a separate copy for each recipient. And, if joe@isp.com sends a million distinct messages, some flag would still be raised, and it would be easy for an admin to nuke all his messages.
Heck, you could set a space limit for outgoing mail ... maybe 100MB or so (up to the ISP of course). That should eliminate a million distinct messages.
