I just read draft-ietf-repute-email-identifiers-04.

Has anyone on the list considered the use of the IPv4 (or v6) PTR rDNS
value as an
identifier? Or more strictly, a fully qualified domain name, that also
resolves to the
queried IP address.

I know of several filtering systems that make use of this identifier
as an identity
token to fix reputation.
