At least with spear-phishing attacks you can bound the problem detection 
investigation since you know what your own domain's legit names are. 
Beyond that, I have no idea if any of the mailbox providers are doing 
anything about lookalike attacks. Email at least has the advantage that 
it is in hands of a user's provider who could care. CA's I'm sure 
couldn't care less.
