Spam and email really aren't "on-topic" for NANOG.  That said, I was 
intrigued, so I did get a several dozen pages into your white paper.

1) If you wrote that, you need to stop and hire/con someone else to do
   your tech writing.  To say your writing is atrocious does not do it
   justice.

2) The ideas look like they may have some merit, except that the average
   Internet/email user is neither capable of nor willing to manage domboxes
   for every entity from which they expect to receive transactional email.

I didn't get much further into the paper than this, because, as mentioned, 
your writing style SUCKS and I'm not strapped into my poetry appreciation 
chair, so you can't make me endure any more of it.

So, in summary, too complicated for my mom to use, and such a crappy 
delivery of the idea that I can't imagine anyone will get through the 
entire pitch (to tell you what the other flaws are).
