So your system will cause _me_ to get lots of bogus "bounces" when
spammers forge my email address, from users of your system, and your
only suggestion is for me to become part of the problem by using your
system myself?  Rather than that, I'll report the users of your system
as spammers (because their bogus challenges are spam) and they'll
start finding their email blocked.
