What would you do with that information if you had it?

Maybe you're using a different definition of "trust" than I am.  To me, "I
trust gmail.com" means "I believe mail signed by gmail.com is legitimate",
irrespective of how they might handle their mail.

Put another way: I believe I would only reach the opinion that I "trust"
mail from a domain when I already know the thing(s) your tag(s) would tell
me.
