When this header is used to establish message annotations, listing a

done by the domain, all messages will be prevented.  When done by the 
IP address, only those from the listed compromised system are 
affected.  In addition, IP addresses that are dynamically assigned are 
also often persistently listed as such, and are seldom used to send 
email.

Why is execution of an IP-based DNSBL at the border MTA not an adequate 
solution to this problem?  That's the solution consistent with this draft.
