Now several things can happen in the state graph.

a. Sender has no more msgs to devlier anyway.
b. Sender has more, and follows Recip's desired 1/h
      - At some point, Recip decides that Sender has been faithful,
              and may be allowed a higher rate.
c. Sender has more, and ignores Recip's desired 1/h
      - Sender is blacklisted.

Optionally:

d. Sender has more, and requests a higher rate allowance by providing
      an accreditation, hashcash, 'introduction protocol' referral ID,
      etc.
e. Sender provides a one-time, or reusable key that was provided out of
      band by recipient - i.e. when signing up for a mailing list -
      which entitles Sender to a higher rate limit.

f. Sender pretends to be 300 other people and sends you buckets of spam.

Bad guys won't play by your rules.
