Contrary to recent claims, it is evidently easy to get throw-away,

Gotcha. You've trapped yourself.
I indeed received a few (only very few compared to @hotmail and
@yahoo) spam messages with senders from @gmx and I complained at
gmx. In all cases gmx replied that the given account/e-mail address
never has existed. It was just random forgery.
And suddenly we're back to the main problem, the authenticity.
Do you see your own contradiction in terms?
You're talking about "evidently easy to get identities".
You're talking about "evidence" in context of randomly
forged sender addresses.
You're blaming providers for accounts that never existed, because you
simply trust the forged sender address given in spam without any
verification, and call this "evidence"???
