Well, I haven't followed this thread much at all, but if you haven't already, you may want to separate your clients onto two distinct servers: one whitelist, and one dirty list.  This will have the effect of easing your worry, and may allow you to isolate the reason for the disruption.  If that reason is not to your standard user agreement, you might be able to persuade your dirty list users to curtail their questionable practices.

Email is not a real-time service :)

With this implementation, the only one from any address that is delayed
for a few minutes is the first one. After that, they're in the accept
list and go straight through.

How large is the number of legit email addresses?
