If senders could just learn (I believe they can) to revisit the outbox

a gui client and an outbox. does AOL have an outbox? I don't remember.
I think the idea of a bounce that contains the original message body
has been the core problem and a vector for spammers... and could be
solved by mandating a return-to-sender of full status data less any of
the message body.
then the spammers will just put their message in an X-header. (grin,
sort of)
