A big difference between craigslist flagging and inbox flagging is that by the time a user can flag a message in email, the message has been delivered to everybody. You can't have a few people remove crap messages from everybody's inbox (right?), so if I can post without reputation, and/or signup in some automated way, the whole thing melts down.
Maybe deliver to people in a reputation order and slight delay to allow the damage to be minimized?

In fact, any gear we cook up on the project using Lamson could probably be circumvented with Lamson itself if not thought out carefully. So yeah, you'll get some spam. Install a spam filter and just accept that's the price you pay for being on the internet, and we'll do our best to reduce it.
