Doesn't this just result in sending spam to innocent parties?  Remember,
the addresses are spoofed.  Seems to me it just doubles the amount of
bogus mail flying around as a result of SoBig.F.  I've been seeing this
kind of messages, and I don't need the additional spam!  

IMO it is much better just to drop the message and forget it.

I started getting 1000-2000 an hour yesterday, I just went to all the
border routers and put a filter on 25 to drop those connections and send
a notice to the From feild of the smtp query, and a QUIT to the
mailserver it was connecting to.

I'd recomend doing this, its easy to do in freeBSD, all my borders are
freeBSD so I havent tried it on anything else yet :)
