BTW, is Goodmail patented? They seem to already have the whole
per-message authenticated token thing worked out.. You buy the tokens,
and once per message, a token is obtained from the token pool and
applied to the message. That message gets special treatment at an ISP.

Seems to be already built, though it took them a hell of a long time
to get some adoption -- and they have a great gap in that Hotmail does
not participate. Hope you've got a rather large amount of venture
capital behind you to make this happen.

Also, I don't see how any sort of "Pay for email system" as (yet
again) described on an anti-spam mailing list solves the issue that we
all have to buy into your system before it'll work. Brings me back to
the point above -- even after spending tens (hundreds?) of millions of
dollars to get ISPs interested in Goodmail, they will have, at best,
about a 60% adoption rate.

And their system requires fewer fundamental changes to an ISP's
backend than yours does.
