Quoth David Nugent on Tue, 29 July:
: 
: I think the point is spurious, nevertheless. You don't need an IP
: to host internet mail. What you do need is a gateway and a valid
: MX receiver for your domain. 

Absolutely right, my point was spurious as stated.  I think the
strongest cogent reformulation I have derived is the similar point
that users of mail clients who are unable to control the setting of
the MAIL FROM: field used by their gateway may be filtered by such a
measure as was originally proposed.
