Domainkeys uses digital signatures and SPF seems to be like microsofts callerid system. They all have the same problems: - I have a few email addresses. When I send email from home that is work related, I set my From: address to my work email. When I send sourceforge-related stuff, I use my sourceforge address. This mail would be bounced using any of these systems because the mail gets sent from my home machine. - Implementation is optional. If I'm sending SPAM, I only need to find one domain in the world that doesn't have this system implemented, and send all my spam using From addresses in that domain. Remember that this domain only has to exist, it doesn't need to even have an email system. - And they assume that DNS is secure and un-spoofable.
