I believe we can disagree without being disagreeable. I'm sure there is no one on this list (or in the world) who thinks DKIM is magic fairy dust that will prevent all fraudulent use of a brand. I would like to think we are all on this list making a good faith effort to explore and debate the right way to deal with the status quo, including the option of sustaining it. I personally don't agree with the position that the status quo should be sustained, but I respect both that position and those who articulate it.
