That's not the way things work. My resources are _always_ limited, even
if I'd have a mailserver built out of the latest-and-greatest hardware
(which, granted, is not the case, but still).

It's unconsiderate for _any_ mail system to be sending mail to me of
which it's blindingly obvious that I wouldn't want to have it; and I'll
just reject it if that's the case.
