In Gnus, we could optionally (default should be off) add the mail
address of the reporter to the User-Agent, e.g.:

  spam-report.el (reinersteib+gmane@imap.cc) Gnus/5.110004 (No Gnus v0.4)
  Emacs/22.0.50 (gnu/linux)

This would allow the Gmane admins to get in contact with malreporters.

Bye, Reiner.
