If the only way you can find to slow the delivery of spam (which I'm
guessing is what you mean by protecting resources) is to completely
deprive users of the ability to receive bounce notifications, your
anti-spam measures are misguided and your R&D insufficient.

I doubt that any non-technical council would come up with the idea of
blocking null senders without prompting from a sysadmin.

A feature? Well, better cut them off from the feature of sending to
the outside world via SMTP, since you're not actually supporting SMTP
end-to-end.
