This idiotic idea resurfaces periodically (see "hashcash" and other
similar products of the wishful thinking of clueless newbies [1]).
It is one of the very stupidest anti-spam ideas -- and there's a lot
of competition for that "honor", unfortunately. [2]
Personally, I'd add SPF to that list.
I suggest that
you refer to the archives of the spam-l and irtf-asrg mailing lists
for a quite thorough debunking of this nonsense by the most senior and
experienced people working in the field.
Which is where discussions regarding spam belong. Except when related
to the anti-spam tools that Mailman provides, this subject is off-topic
for this list.
