It has a very negative effect on some tests, particularly
NO_DNS_FOR_FROM which caught roughly 2% of spam with a 99.9% accuracy
rate (those are my real-time numbers which are better than my corpus
numbers since the test is highly time-sensitive).

If you object to the change, complaining to ICANN and Verisign might not
hurt.  If you take the further step of switching your registrations
elsewhere, I would suggest calling Verisign to let them know why (and
give them your name and the domain name you have moved so they know you
were a paying customer).

As far as the SpamAssassin DNS tests go, I'm thinking about the best
course of action.  Someone might come up with a better solution (that
requires less work on our part) than treating their web server IP
address to be the same thing as NXDOMAIN.
