There seem to be rather a lot, since it's a feature on most magazine and newspaper web sites. Since you mentioned the WSJ, they use the user's own address as the From: address (I just checked.) Some do the hack you mentioned, but a lot don't. My college class has a mailing list, and I sometimes send articles to it from my WSJ account, which would stop working if they didn't let me put my own address on the From: line. Do you have any numbers on how much if any of a spam or phish problem these things are? They've never been on my radar, I think because they do a lot of rate limiting and inbound filtering. Some also limit it to subscribers. Also please keep in mind uses like the school teacher I mentioned earlier today. Again, useful, not abusive, and I think there are likely to be a lot of little setups like his that are now mysteriously failing.
