Here is my wishlist:

   1. get a static IP address
   2. host my own mail service
   3. have the ability to reject incoming mail based on:
      3.1 size
      3.2 attachment type, if any
      3.3 reg. expr. match of sender/recipient
   4. bayseian filter on anything that gets through -- not
      automatically reject these, but flag them for possible
      wholesale deletion of suspected messages

This would save me a lot of time, considering the latest rash
of mail-from-microsoft, and I couldn't cuss brain-damaged,
inflexible ISP filtering any more.

A lot depends on one's definition of "spam."
