  - DKIM related MUA annotations protect recipients from spoofing.

  - DKIM identified bulk-senders might bypass message filtering.

  - DKIM indicates where abuse can be reported.

  - DKIM policy should allow MUA annotations to apply to a larger  
percentage of messages.

  - DKIM policy should allow selective handling of critical  
(transactional) messages.
