I don't even see how it could be used for this. If I 'trust' a source
as to not be forging the envelope From then I can simply ban the email
address if they're sending spam or whitelist it if not. I get a fair
amount of 419 style spam from yahoo servers which I don't accept
becuase its not whitelisted and I can't see how DK would help me in
this whitelisting. Since I trust the source I can whitelist the address.
