This is why I keep asking you for a clear use case.   What you are describing 
here is a real problem.  The solution to that problem is not to publish 
everyone’s private information in a huge public database.

Whether or not you should have this information has no bearing on whether it 
should be in a public database.  There are much better ways to solve this 
problem, which require no privacy violation at all.  Just as one example, if I 
establish mutual trust with everyone I’m corresponding with, then we can set up 
a mechanism whereby any mail from a source with which trust has not been 
established can be dropped automatically.   This does not require a public 
database with my personal identifying information.  It can probably even be 
done in such a way that you don’t have a map of who knows whom, although that’s 
a hard problem.  But even if it were done in such a way that it gave you, 
someone with whom I have a business relationship, private access to my contact 
graph, that would be much less bad than making all of my personal information 
public.
