Not something simple, then, given that I'm not running a LDAP server.
At the moment, I have more than adequate resources to let users deal with
spam after I've accepted it. I take on board the comments about that only

idea; I'll check that nobody is doing it.
Nevertheless, thanks for taking the time and trouble to reply; I appreciate
it.
