Phillip,
To summarize some of this discussion, the chain of events is this:
- The VERIFIED address perhaps along with the message is used as input
to whatever reputation system there is. The reputation service will
return a value of ACCEPT or REJECT for each message.
- UNVERIFIED leads to a query to SSP. The results of the SSP query
along with the message will be fed to the reputation service to produce
a result of ACCEPT or REJECT.
It is out of scope for this working group to try and guess the special
sauce in the reputation service, as I understand it. The only question
this leads to is whether the unverified address is valuable without a
valid DKIM signature, and YMMV, especially in the beginning (like now).
