  Ahhh, yes.  It would.  We all know spammers forge everything as
standard practice.

  The world is full of poorly configured mail exchangers, these days. 
If all mail exchangers had proper forward and reverse DNS entries,
identified themselves properly in HELO, and kept static addresses,
spam would be a lot easier to track down.
  Of course, in that world, "aluminumsulfate" would be *REALLY* pissed off.  ;-)
