I think you're being a little Unix-centric.  What if I have a Windows NT
machine, and I load up NTmail (a SMTP server for NT), and I get an IP
address from my favorite ISP -- perhaps aol.com, perhaps some small local
operation -- and I start blasting out spam.  How's anyone going to be able
to trace that?
