Mea culpa - you only addressed the forgery issue. There are still some 
interoperability issues with S/MIME but that's probably something that 
will be solved sooner or later.
However, this is an anti-spam group and within the context of fighting 
spam, how will this help? The problem that I have is that there are 
several identity schemes here and none of them address the point of 
what do you do, once the identity is established. There is IP 
identity, domain/IP identity (LMAP/MARID), more heavier cryptographic 
identities, etc. All of these lead into the same point - once the 
identity has been established, what happens then?
This is a question to the entire group, not you directly.
If we get forgery under control, then it is possible to apply 
reputation, accreditation, blacklisting and other techniques to manage 
spam.  What am I missing?
Yes, you are correct. The trick question is how to apply them.
