Quirky idea, and totally one I've quietly thought about for a while with
various lists...

Especially if we could correlate spam with posts.. but then that can be
a lot of work partially because of spam filters.

Spam/UCE is a hard never-ending war.. what you could do with reverse DNS
lookups twenty years ago was such a dream.

The smartest option for mailing list participants is to use a separate
address for mailing list(s).. if you aren't in a position to control
your MTA.
