...
the same problems apply to blocking incoming SMTP connections, or mails
from/to specific addresses, SPAM.

thinking a little bit more about the issue with networked services in
general (including SMTP and the spam/abuse problems, as well as
filesharing and many more), the conclusive decision would be to define a
bullet proof standard on introducer based trust, deriving a certain trust
level or metric from a peer-trust based trust chain. ...

A friend of mine recently started Habeas (see http://www.habeas.com/) and
since I have no financial or operational connection to them I feel pretty
free to state publically that there are non-web-of-trust introducer models
available which might pan out pretty well even though they're profitable.
