Water tight opt-in (yet another FUSSP)

Hi and season greetings to all!

This Final Ultimate Solution to the Spam Problem is based on two
existing techniques:

1. tagged email addresses
   http://wiki.asrg.sp.am/wiki/Tagged_addresses

2. web-based subscriptions to newsletters and other marketing stuff.

#1 can be provided by either the user's MSA or a third party.  In
either case, each tagged address should be registered in a DB, along
with some notes such as which company was the address given to.

#2 is obviously the main way that marketers use to collect addresses
legally.  The FUSSP[1] consists in enticing those marketers to declare
the domain name and a List-Id, envelope sender, or similar token that
can be used for email authentication[2].  With such additional data,
the user-side server (their MSA or 3rd party) can have the user login
and confirm the subscription --a step that many marketers still omit
because they fear that users won't click on a link they found in an
email message.)  It will then be able to check sender's compliance.

The term "water tight opt-in" was coined by David Hofstee on SDLU, and
the mechanism is further described in my wiki[3].  I think you don't
have to read the latter to guess how subscribing, checking, and
certifying that a proper subscription was performed can work.  A
reason why marketers would want those subscription certificates is the
upcoming Canadian law enforcement.

It seems to me it would only take some commitment and cooperation to
have it started.  I'm unable to find the proper anchor for this FUSSP
in Vernon's page[1], not even the first (I didn't "discover", just
stumbled upon it.)  Can you help?

Best wishes
Ale
