Viktor, forgive me, but this is such a completely different use case than what 
we are talking about.   In this case, the Postfix mailer and the recursive 
validating resolver are both operated by the same entity.  You can use TSIG and 
be satisfied, or even trust the IP address if you are naive.

The homenet use case is completely different.   Here we are talking about 
devices that routinely roam among operational domains with no basis for trust 
or even knowledge of the trustworthiness of the local resolver.   In this case, 
trusting the local resolver could be anywhere from completely safe, to an 
opportunity to have your butt sniffed by your employer, to a completely corrupt 
Wifi hotspot that's been set up specifically to attack your device.   Trusting 
the network in this case is simply nonsensical, and there is no trust 
relationship that could make TSIG work.
