This probably isn't a "great" answer anymore, but qmail (remember that
one?) has hooks that allow you to plug in filters than can key off of
any SMTP "field".  That's what my primary mail service provider offers
and that allows me to filter out entire netblocks, filter subject lines,
etc.  So... I throw it out there for consideration.
