Inline rejection is a little dangerous for mailing lists (because you might be auto-unsubscribed), but IMHO it's better than receiving and quarantining, because at least the sender can do something to resolve the situation -- such as calling you to say their email was bounced by your spam filter. Providing a telephone number in the bounce is an effective way to deal with false positives.
