A copy is here:

A sentence says:

    The Report, however, identified domain-level authentication as a
    promising technological development that would enable Internet
    Service Providers (‘‘ISPs’’) and other domain holders to better
    filter spam, and that would provide law enforcement with a potent
    tool for locating and identifying spammers.

Thanks.  Let me quote a paragraph by Paul Q. Judge, from the 3rd pdf:

    It doesn't require that one day everyone turns it on and we begin
    to drop the rest of the e-mail and break e-mail.  If a domain
    decides to turn it on, then they've prevented forgery for their
    domain and they're protected.  For persons that have not turned it
    on, then their e-mail still flows but they are not able to
    stop people from forging messages from their domain.  So, I think
    it's something useful and can be deployed incrementally.


It seems we're still stuck midstream...
