Sounds swell, but how do you plan to qualify the people sending in
data?

Beyond that, ongoing qualification & compliance are big deals when running a 
whitelist. I ran Return Path's for four years, and everyday was some new issue, 
be it a good sender gone bad, or a compromised machine, or an argument with a 
bad sender who wanted to tell me his business plan.

Not for the faint-of-heart, nor the sane. I've said the same thing repeatedly  
to others who have thought of starting a whitelist: don't.
