Correct. Signing makes only sense if you do it consistently. |

OK, I can't bring myself a "proof of concept". I'm not a evil hacker. |
| 34 |
But I said "relatively easy", I meant that if you have your own server |
| 35 |
running (with for example sendmail) and enough criminal energy, know |
| 36 |
how, I'm pretty sure that it's possible. And I'm also pretty sure that |
| 37 |
my thinking is much to complicated. Because e-mail abuse is not new and |
| 38 |
your "proof of concept" is probably since a long time ago produced. ;-) |
