The problem with C/R systems is that when a spammer forges my e-mail
address as the sender, I will get additional junk.

When I receive a challenge, two things will happen. First, I will respond
to the challenge, to make sure that the spam gets delivered. The other
thing is that the mail system that sent the challenge will be added to
my blocklist. (I many cases, a stupid admin decided to add C/R, so there is
no reason to send a complaint).
