Past experience with SPF indicates that spammers -- who have financial
incentive -- will be early adopters, and legitimate mailers who don't
conform to your preconceived notions will be harmed. The spammers
will claim that because they comply with your scheme, they aren't
really spammers at all. The scheme -- like SPF -- would be doubly
harmful.
