No, there's nothing like that.  The best defence is to make all Notebooks
PRIVATE to keep non-subscribers' noses out of where they're not meant to
be.

As Douglas has already pointed out, strict subscription rules is the best
defence.  Have subscriptions BY_OWNER to allow you to weed out the Bad Guys
before they even get onto the list, or at least combine the Subscription=
keyword with CONFIRM to stop scripted signups.

On really large, active lists the former option's effectiveness will be
dictated by the Owner's patience and threshold for work.  YMMV.
