What if someone forges mail from me to an AccuSpam address?  This seems like

Indeed.

When I had my auto-responder going (the purpose wasn't similar to AccuSpam), I made it so it would only send one "auto-responder" per reply-to address. So after the first one you would never get another auto-response.

Perhaps this sort of thing would help protect against machine-gun bounce-back spamming?
