Can you explain? What is "CSV and David's _auth"?
Two methods designed for establishing who is authorized to relay mail in
a hierarchically authoritative fashion, i.e. using DNS "properly" (as
opposed to DNSBL non-hierarchical scheme.)
For more info, see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certified_Server_Validation
That seems to be a combination of (A) checking that the domain authorises
the sending IP address to email from that domain (like SPF's HELO
implementation), followed by (B) verifying the reputation of the domain.

Apparently, this is similar but can use parts of existing SPF records for
part (A). Seems quite useful, but I think that better separation of
authorisation and reputation management would help.
