backscatter from a joejob is killing me

I've been receiving tons of supposed bounces from Peru saying I've sent 
messages to non-existant address using a cpollock@earthlink.com address. 
One such bounce is below:

>>From the stats on my server earthlink.net is a top forged domain.

 So many of my users simply want earthlink.net blacklisted, but I cant
do that. They could use spf but apparently that didnt work for them

Unfortunately such bounces are creating problems for my servers too ,
who send these NDRs to innocent emailids from earthlink

I had been reading about BATV. But didnt quiet get time to really go
thru the docs 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bounce_Address_Tag_Validation

Anyone using BATV already ?
