For better or worse the AMEY group adopted the SPF approach in

Putting the AMEY group together &tc took over a year, the

approach was considered but could not be delivered soon enough for
their purposes.

No, that group committed to test both IP and crypto solutions.  In
fact, Yahoo (including SBC, British Telecom, and Rogers Cable) and
EarthLink are already using DomainKeys.  AOL has indicated they will
early this year. Only Hotmail remains. On the SPF side, I believe that
only Hotmail is verifying Sender ID, though AOL and EarthLink have
published SPF records.
I'm not seeing DK signatures on messages sent from my Earthlink account, and no checking of DK-signed mail sent to it. In what way are they already using DomainKeys?

How many of the above are checking DK signatures?
