I expect to see a lot more junk email from <> and therefore a lot more

the reliablility of Internet email in the face of this kind of attack.

One could use special addresses as the envelope recipient which become
invalid after a month.
Mail to these addresses is only accepted if it has a return path of <>
and mail to other addresses only if it has a return path that is not <>.
The addresses would have to contain a timestamp and a digital signature,  
which is checked by the MTA that receives mail for the user who uses  
such a scheme.
