>I was addressing authentication, not reputation. This makes no sense at all. DKIM and SPF do authentication right now. If for some reason you want authentication of the From: line, you know where to find Sender-ID or DMARC.
Your message a few rounds ago said: >>I can't conceive of an Internet-based technology that can confirm >>intent or legitimacy of the signer/author/whatever. > >How about a public key in a TXT RR? You can tell that the From: line is tied to a DNS entry, but you can't tell from that DNS entry whether the sender is the person who he claims to be, or whether his intent is to phish you or tell you that your bank account really is overdrawn. This argument has been beaten to death N times, no need for another round.
