... and what happens when someone sends spam with forged addresses to
[a] bogus addresses (you get bombed by your own mailer-daemon) or [b]
innocent users (you start harassing someone who didn't do anything).
I'd recommend people get familiar w/their email headers *well* before
taking retaliatory actions ... if then. It's better (IMHO) to filter
incoming mail from spam domains and trash them before they're seen.
