No, you are falling for the intentional misrepresentation or lie that

So far as the recipient can tell, it's no different than forged-spam
messages.
Q: Why is it up to the recipient to verify the identity of the
sender?
I understand that methods like PGP, and client-side certificates
can allow the recipient to verify the identity of the sender, despite
their alleged "from" address, or network location. To me, proposals
like RMX allow similar verifications, but at a lower cost.
