I've not used it, but a colleague who has some involvement in the
process of drafting the spec informed me (when I showed him your note):

* Domain Keys is not designed to stop spam.

* It may help stop "phishing" attacks.

* Under certain specialized situations, it *may* assist with
  "whitelisting" certain sources of email.

(The above are my paraphrase of his statements; please attribute errors
to me, rather than my colleague. And as usual, I'm not representing
anyone else.)

Peace,
david
