Correct. Signing makes only sense if you do it consistently.

OK, I forgot the human factor. ;-)

OK, I can't bring myself a "proof of concept". I'm not a evil hacker.
But I said "relatively easy", I meant that if you have your own server
running (with for example sendmail) and enough criminal energy, know
how, I'm pretty sure that it's possible. And I'm also pretty sure that
my thinking is much to complicated. Because e-mail abuse is not new and
your "proof of concept" is probably since a long time ago produced. ;-)
