I like all the ideas going this direction and would love to hear more
about them. For the past few months I've been trying to dream up a "giant
grey 'web' of trust" that could be used by mailservers to check the
validity of incoming connections. My thoughts eventually came around to a
decentralized gnutella-style client to be run by SMTP server admins (or to
be run by friends/providers on their behalf). I have no code and no more
detail than I just provided so don't ask.

This doesn't have to be part of the SMTP server, though.

See http://web-o-trust.org/ for a sample that works entirely orthogonally
- -- running over HTTP, using flat files on web servers as a data store, and
it just comes up with lists of IP addresses that you can query through
DNSbl lookups.
