Most of the bogus stuff I get has gone through a long path and
eventually hits a misconfigured site and is mailed to me.

I suggest that perhaps inews should count the !'s in the path.
If there are more than N bangs, toss it or accept it, otherwise mail it.
N could be a tunable parameter, perhaps in the range of 3 or so by default.
