No, the mailbox providers already can do that and it's not because
they were caught with their shorts down that they didn't.  They really
really mean "p=reject" for users.  A senior admin at Yahoo! was very
clear on damrc@ietf that they want their vanilla users covered by
"p=reject" because the threat model (which is not phishing, it's
"recommended by friend" spam) involves user mailboxes.

She also said that (as of a week ago) the attack based on stolen
contact lists was continuing to flood their incoming MXes, despite
over a month of "p=reject" (contrary to AOL's claims that "p=reject"
stopped the attack).  No explanation has been given why the spammers
are continuing to spend their resources on the attack.

Oh, c'mon, Jim.  This is just the evil kind of thing we *want* to do
to AOL!
