Ohoh, having *all* the reasons is something my list admins ask me for every
once in a while. I think I've gotten them all trained to read the message
and figure it out themselves, though, so we can wait 'till post 2.1 :)
Might be interesting to set it up with rankings a la spamassassin and have
it autoreject instead of sending if the message fits a whole lot of
criteria. (eg: a big attachment by a non-subscriber tends to be a copy of
Klez.)
