Depends on the nature of the assertion. If the assertion is "I'm a good guy" or "I send virus-free messages" the receiver isn't likely to believe me. If the assertion is "Be very careful about messages coming from my domain", why shouldn't the receiver pay attention to that?

Because, as I said in my previous message, you are making assertions about the behavior of people you don't know or control.

With respect to a domain likely to use SSP (such as a domain used only for transactional messages), who are these zillions of other senders, and why should that domain be concerned about them?

I was under the impression that SSP was intended to deter unrelated senders from sending mail with your domain in the From: line, on the theory that such messages might be forgeries. Are you saying it's for something else?

R's,
