What was the advantage of SSP with look-alike domains?
 

To find large unproductive ratholes?  Neither DKIM or SSP claim to have
any direct effect on look-alike domain names, and there's nothing in our
charter that says that we'll be doing anything about that ever. DKIM/SSP
are two pieces for a much larger set of things that need to come together
to combat phishing including software layered on top of thse base 
authentication
mechanisms, user base training/human factors, and law enforcement -- most of
which will not have any IETF involvement at all. No amount of hand-wringing
here is likely to tell us how this will ultimately play out.
