I crate a CA cert claiming to be for "elwell.org" and use it to sign a
cert for "sip.elwell.org".
I then generate INVITE requests for everybody on the SIP mailing list,
with RFC 4474 Identity headers signed by "sip.elwell.org" and send
them off UDP. Not from a real SIP UP, but from a simple harassment
program.

How do existing identity mechanisms protect against this?

The answer to that is simple: will you pay for the calls?


Pay? I have yet to pay (beyond the basic transport cost) for a SIP call using a domain-style address.
