[ale] OT: Spammer Deathtrap

Got an idea while walking to the grocery.  How about a service that
masquerades as an open mail relay, but then attempts a buffer overflow
in one of its responses?  Hopefully this would bring down spamming
programs, if not whole machines.  I was thinking about running it on my
cable modem connection.  I get several SMTP probes a week...

Any thoughts?
