Even that filter isn't guaranteed, against one of the email header forging virii. It is the best filter I am aware of. I regularly get bounces of virii being sent to dead mailboxes claiming to be from owner-paddlewise_at_paddlewise.net - admittedly in those cases the From: address is what has been forged. Only email coming in from the host paddlewise.net aka cyclone.muddypuppies.com is from paddlewise. There's a very legitimate reason that Melissa pgp signs her email... If the signature doesn't match it's not really from her.
