"Anyone not using seat belts and turn signals should consider it". I can see a clear advantage to the latter, but not the former. Can you briefly explain why you believe everyone should sign mail? Before you do, let me share some meager data with you. Inbox spam from Aug 19, 2010 to Mar 15, 2011 Spam: 368 w/DKIM-Sig: 76 Total: 20% with DKIM signature Spam trap from Jan 23, 2011 to Mar 15, 2011 Spam: 1878 w/DKIM-Sig: 1 Total: 0.005% with DKIM signature About 99% of the trap spam could be blocked instantly by simply removing the addresses from a white list, as most of it is bot spam. Note that most of the Inbox DKIM signed spam comes through mailing lists, ~50% from kernel.org. MLMs account for 99+% of my non spam inbound mail. Thus, as you can see, of the stuff that's difficult or impossible to REJECT, 20% of it is signed. How does that signature help me block this 20% ?? -- Stan
