Fighting Spam - Using the DMCA for Good?

Tesseract asks: "Since I run my own mail server, and have several processes in place to stop spam from hitting my mailbox, could it not be construed as a violation of the DMCA for spammers to 'bypass' my anti-spam protections? On a similar note, wouldn't retention of my copyrighted information (email address) be a violation of copyright law? It would seem that [parts of section 1201 might cover such situations]. How about this reference, as well? Isn't there some way to turn this legal nightmare back on itself kung-fu style?"
