Neither do many spammers.  It's my contention that looking at message
content, or a single or a few deliveries, is not sufficient to distinguish
spam behaviour from legitimate mass mailing.  We need a bird's-eye view
of the entire (or a significant portion) of the mail run.

No-one's actually commented on the merits or lack thereof of my
proposal. :-(
