Actually, we don't.  Is it the same as Johann's laughable "solution";
the equivalent of running SpamAssassin?

Essentially the same principle as BATV, the original 'SES' before it
went off into the weeds, or self-signed SRS.

Basically I sign the reverse-path on any genuine outgoing mail so it
looks like an SRS address. Then I never accept bounces to the 'raw'
address 'dwmw2(_at_)infradead(_dot_)org'. So anyone doing sender verification
callouts gets to reject faked mail, but _certainly_ I don't get bounces.

As far as I could see from reviewing your webpage, your solution suffers 
from the replay problem (apart from a weak datestamp verification).  Did I 
overlook anything?
