This shouldn't be that easy. For example, I send my mails through my ISP
outgoing mail server while my "From:" field is always set to my gmail
account.

Subject: Preventing email spoofing

Is there any automated tool to bounce email not from
the original server? That is, is there a tool that
bounces back emails claiming they're from hostA (their
from:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) however they're really from hostB
(that is, recieved: from hostB...).
This seems a good way to prevent many spam messages
that claim to originate from your server.
Is it a good idea?
Is there any written script that does so?
