I may be missing something important, but I see some pragmatic
obstacles, e.g., with Yahoo Groups.  A post from one such had Received 
lines like this:

That is, it seems very likely that I'd want to whitelist the entire
class C, not just 66.218.66.98.  Mind posting some clues about that?

(If I'm being excessively lazy, please do say so.  I'm not expecting
handholding.  Honestly.)
