I second this. In addition to being obnoxious, implementing sender
verification on FD will prevent FD subscribers from receiving
legitimate advisories and information sent by people who are
justifiably unwilling to cooperate with sender verification.

I would suggest that making a significant avenue of full disclosure
(the FD list) more difficult to use by treating people who submit
advisories like Microsoft treats people who activate Windows over the
phone (i.e. by assuming they are miscreants) does not encourage full
disclosure, and is consequently unsuitable for this list.
