Is that already so ?  I've expected that much later in the
game for SPF and DKIM.  And of course also for PRA and CSV.

Whatever "PASS" from unknown strangers is a waste of time,
without white list it's useless.  For the "threats" draft
we mainly need the case "PASS from a white-listed source",
and Jim has this as 4.1.16 (among others):  HIGH + MEDIUM.

                            Bye, Frank
