This method might tell me that email from bob@aol.com really came from AOL, but it doesn't mean that Bob can't send me spam. Worse, will mail from my domain be automatically ignored because I don't own a big commercial domain? Given that the web is much more than large interconnected corporations, I don't see this affecting much more (hopefully) than phishing attacks. Not bad as far as that goes, I guess.
<bquote>Worse, will mail from my domain be automatically ignored because I don't own a big commercial domain?</bquote> Unless it gets to the point that sites <i>only</i> accept mail form DK-enabled sites, you won't have a problem. Even if it comes to that, there are plenty of "How-To's" on the net for setting up DK for your domains (if you're clued enough to be able to run your own mail server, you should be clued enough to figure out how to set up DK).
That said, it should be interesting to see what kind of load key-verification will put on a mail system.
