That'd be a reputation system focused on the "bad/not bad" axis, based on
spamtraps.  Spamtraps are very, very good at determining "bad," but not very
effective for "not bad" or "good" -- which is why most existing reputation
systems, such as senderscore.org, also mix in user feedback via complaints.
