That's locking the barn door after the horse is gone. You're playing a

It's not as easy as all that. Consistent spam sources (identities
consistently associated with spam streams) will have strongly bad

identities. Or if they're really clever - to inconsistent ones.
It's not at all easy for them to have better than neutral reputations. (the
status quo - of course) And of course, past mail behaviour need not be the
only source of reputation.
