Heck, why not just use Dan Bernstein's qmail which can be configured
(more or less) to do precisely that. And break every email protocol in
the known universe -- but that's just DJB.

Or use spamassassin ... or greylisting ... or subscriber only ... or
just about anything.

Better yet. Don't give out your email address to **anyone**
