Signing mails is not a solution against spam. Spammers have more processing power available than any anti-spam measure. Signing would only help against spam if you agree to accept only mails from certain senders (i.e. signed by certain keys). This is not much different from plain white listing and thus you won't be able to get mail from anyone you don't know. And no, the WoT won't help: The spammers have more nodes at their hands than anyone else and are able to build up WoTs as they like. Further, the WoT - like any PKI - does only work in smallish groups. Salam-Shalom, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
