You send a message "from stuart(_at_)infradead(_dot_)org" to the next
destination.  Any problems being caused by you or by the final
destination or inbetween is not my problem -> no bounce to me.

Don't use my name when you send.


If you send a mail to any users at domains I run, then I _will_ forward
that message intact. If you consider that to be 'forgery' and 'abuse'
then feel free to report it as such to my ISP. Go on; it'll be funny.

Meanwhile, in the real world...

Whether it is actually abuse when you do it is totally irrelevant.

Give us a reliable way to distinguish your forwarding from Joe Spammer's
forgery, then we have something to talk about. SRS does that. There are
other methods if you don't like SRS. If you don't distinguish yourself
from the abusers, you have no cause to complain when you get lumped in
with them.
