I'm not sure what you are using for a 'spam list'. But you can whip
up your own custom error messages in /etc/mail/access - based upon
the wording on the file, this won't even mess with your warranty,
the basic format is pretty simple:

spamdomain.com			ERROR:"550 Eat more bannanas..."
user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx	ERROR:"500 Where's Dave?"
exspouse@xxxxxxxxxxx		REJECT


ect...

	Have fun....

	If you want to see what the message looks like you can send
a blank message to one of our dead domains. Our mail server is not
running on a Cobalt but the messages should look the same:

	whatever@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
