The problem with that idea is that the from address on these things is usually forged. Many of the current email viruses set the "from" address to be random entries from the infected computer's address book, so detecting if the mail is coming from a PC user becomes difficult. Of course, if you can work out a reliable method of doing so you could make quite a bit of money in the anti-spam business :-)

Isn't the list configured to only accept mail from subscribers? So even if it didn't come from the address in the From header, it still has to have come from a subscriber, right? Or does the listserv only check the From header?
