If the mailsystem required that messages were signed by a key who public
part was previously lodged with the mailsystem, that would do something
about it. The load on the mailserver wouldn't be that high since it checks
the sig once at the time it accepts the message for broadcast.

This will make all users of web based mails without PGP support unable to
post/subscribe... not good I think. For me clamav does great... but eats
too much CPU time (at least 3 times slower than f-prot for example). I
don't find MyDoom as a big problem here - all RedHat lists are not related
to windows.
