Personally I wonder how much of the attention with regards to Sender ID  
is more of a dig against micro$oft.  O wait that's the "in" thing to  
do. :-)

But what does saying something really mean?  Would it be somewhat sorta  
like the  xfree86 license change situation?

IE we won't have any package in portage that implements Sender ID?

Tom
