Exactly -- and you have to keep track of those, and hope
that your friends don't bcc you (since few if any MTA's
include the Bcc: header when they transfer the message), and
make sure you've got all your aliases in there, and so on.
Plus, it does nothing to reduce the cost of spam; your server
still has to accept it and process it. Might give you a bit
of temporary relief, though, except for the spammers who put
your e-mail address in the headers.
