Well, if they're completely blank, you can use a test of $message_body_size to
reject emails with no body content. However, you may end up rejecting legitimate
mail, so you'll probably want to tailor your tests to your circumstances. For
example, I've known people who send emails with just a short question in the
subject header but no message body.
