Time.

I have never ever ever seen one spam on any of the groups where you have to:

send the 'scribe message
receive the confirmation (*)
send the confirmation back

It would be very efficient if the confirmation mentioned that spam would be  
passed along for $1000/per 'scriber. (I have seen this on lists).

It just doesn't happen.  They would have to have a valid mailing address,  
and spammers don't like using real addresses
