That all depends on who your friends are, I suppose.

What I do is block hotmail.com senders when the remote server's DNS
name is not within the hotmail.com domain. Only occasionally does
this have a false positive: when someone uses, eg, Evite to send me an
invitation with a hotmail address, and when hotmail's DNS is hosed or
misconfigured for a while.

I do the same for @yahoo.com, @msn.com, and @aol.com addresses as
well.
