tool, or is this something a security guru would do for his

The question really is ... do spammers care?  Answer: No.

Since spammers send out so many millions of messages with spoofed from
addresses, the notification email would never end up being sent back to
them in the first place.  They don't care if you don't read their email
... there are plenty of stupid people that will fall for it.
