Guys, havent we all seen good example of what robots do last week with
that mailkey bot?
I agree with Vernon - the challenge/response roboots are last resort and
if you already determined its a spam and just want to make sure its not
false positive.
If we do any challege-response system it must be automated in a way that
humans do not get annoyed and that all systems can recognize its a bot and
since its automated some kind of authenticaiton would be necessary to not
let spammers participate in it.

1) How do I distinguish the messages from these robots from spam?
A lot of them advertise these horrible services.
Use a VERP. Another robot should reply to the VERP, whereas a human
should reply to the Reply-To.
2) How do two people who use the service talk to each other?
Your message to me will be challenged by your service. There
is a strong possibility that some of the more clueless bots
will livelock here, others will never allow the
communication.
Clueless bots are always going to be a problem (see vacation messages).
You have to use cluefull bots and complain to the ISP of those who use
dumb bots.
