I supose that's often true, given that a signature from a random
unknown sender that matches the From: address is just as worthless as
a signature from a random unknown sender that doesn't match the From:
address.

But please stop misrepresenting other people's arguments.  Nobody has
ever claimed that a random signature gives mail a free pass.
