Would it be reasonable to make Mark as SPAM available to non
adminstrators in one or both of the following ways:

(a) the user whose address is abused should be allowed to Mark as SPAM

(b) (complex and possibly vulnerable to DoS) any user could be allowed
    to Mark as SPAM
    - admins would need a Mark as HAM command, and explicitly marked
      HAM is not possible to mark as SPAM without admin privileges
    - create a report which looks for recently Marked as SPAM events
      so that admins and/or volunteers could check for abuse of the
      system
