I read some of it, and I'm not sure what they are
trying to do. Sounds like they would put alot of work on developers of
smpt servers and clients, and all this would be wasted because spammers could
just as easily make they needed changes too.
A better idea IMHO? Have mail servers carry
certs like secure http sites. Cert fails verification with third
party? No mail from you then. Running a server that allowed forged
info, and get caught? Cert revoked. Sure a spammer can still spam
away, but it wouldn't be a forged source and you could contact the server admin,
and if the complaite to the cert authority got to be numerous they would have
trouble getting a renewal. Bonus? Encrypted transmission of emails
would be possible =)
...it's fun to dream anyway, we can't even get IPv6
inplace, lol.
