From my perspective, it is my mailserver, and I can accept/reject/etc
as I choose. My customers can either accept the way I do things, or
they can find someone else to 
purchase services with.

Well, that's my take on it.

So I _always_ either (a) reject at SMTP time, or (b) send a bounce. I 
would rather not do a bounce unless SFP has 'passed', to avoid
annoying 
innocent victims of joe-jobs. Hence I perform all spam checks prior to

acceptance. 

I agree with these philosophies 100% and couldn't have put it better
myself.
