[ale] Mailer Daemon Bounce Script for SPAM

I've got a better idea ... put in an option to simply *hang*, or keep
alive, for a specified amount of time, an SMTP connection once a UCE
transmission is detected. It disrupts the spammer's normal routine, forcing
the d00d to manually remove your addy from the list, and may take up enough 
time such that the spammer's account gets cancelled before the rest of the
addies on the list get spammed.

Of course, this would obviously make a DDoS attack on your box much easier.

Surely something like this exists out there already?
