Unfortunately, that's not entirely true when a government grants a  
monopoly - they get to regulate it.  And the government is us (plus  
friction).  Oh, is the government screwing things up again? - how  
unexpected.

The right solution is to open the market and for people to learn how  
to use SPF and DKIM.  I don't see where it would be a problem for  
Comcast to relay DKIM/SMIME messages for me, except that the current  
solution increases Comcast's profits and the aforementioned would  
probably only break even.
