We would be interested in this and currently are looking a putting something like this together.
User goes to a web page enters e-mail address and selects filtering level E-mail is sent to entered e-mail address for conformation User just hits reply and sends an e-mail back System process and adds correct lines to database At regular intervals or immediately a new $default$.junknmail or other text file is created and could be copied or written directly to the mail server. The whole process could run on an independent IS system or the mail server and the e-mail conformation deals with user login and password lookup issue. Not as slick as it could be but should work.
