Some clever spambot seems to have scraped a bunch of addresses out of the

DKIM is directly designed to address this... What do we need to do to put it
in play?
Unfortunately, DKIM is /not/ design to address this. DKIM is designed to
provide a reliable, accurate identifier upon which reputation data can be developed.
That's a fundamentally different task from detected invalid From: field contents.
ADSP, and add-on to DKIM, is felt by its promoters to be useful for detecting
invalid From: fields, but it does not work through mailing lists.
