...By default, an unrecognized or unauthorized person would be able to send the recipient a "simple", small post... no attachments, no HTML-burdened content (including NO embedded images, no scripting, etc)!, maybe with an upper-bound size of 10K or 50K or something....

Not a bad idea, though I don't see it spreading like wildfire. But the spam making it though my current filters would mostly make it through this filter too.

Now, I have lately been getting "junk" spam messages which contain NO visible purpose whatsoever... ... Perhaps their "real" content is in an HTML-burdened alternative version (which gets stripped out of all E-mail upon arrival here).
This is so for spam I've received recently.
