Some background: the users are malicious; and are leveraging high speed of modern email as a substitute for SMS (which they are not allowed). The obvious solution is to artificially delay all mail for (say) fifteen minutes. This is hoped to reduce the enormous quantity of one-line messages like "hi F, how r u" and "im ok, u". _______________________________________________
That should be an effective strategy. I've never heard of mail as a substitute for IRC, XMPP, StatusNet and their proprietary counterparts, which are actually designed for this application.
Ah, well, the users are not allowed IM either :-)
