Perhaps I was a bit hasty and sarcastic in this post.
I have been working for 3 months on a system I call Choicelist that would 
allow senders to describe how they will send their mail, and allow 
recipients to block mail that did not match the senders description, as well 
as filter on other consent based decisions. This was to prevent spoofing, 
but I see now it works both ways as it allows a sender to prove themselves 
regardless of ISP or connection.
You can see an early version at my website:  www.choicelist.com

I do feel that Mr. DeKok is absolutely correct, and I wish I were able to 
word my statements as well as he did:
It's about the sender being able to make statements about his behaviour, 
and the recipient being able to choose to stop communicating with the sender 
when his actions don't match his words.
