Ahh, but I would like to stop the spammers before they
even get the mail through and chew up resources (memory,

I agree.  Most if not all of my users don't know
or want to know about putting in filters.  Its typically
a yes/no thing, either they want all mail or have it filtered.

Exactly.  For me, I just wanted to set a default, and list
the exceptions to the rule.  More complicated rules can
be setup, but I don't need it.
