One underlying premise of Tim's argument is that the presence of these actions at the server makes his life harder. In what way? The server will not require a digital signature. Unsigned messages will still be sent to the list. There need be no change in the way that one sends and receives mail. I refuse the argument that toad.com server actions make anybody's life harder.
A few days delay, which is what I think we are talking about, will clearly make following threads more difficult. And add to noise on the list, as the content of an early-non-signed message may be repeated and signed by someone else later on. After netcom's recent mail mis-delivery problems, I know all too well how hard it is to participate in discussions that are delivered in random-appearing order. A few hours delay will be indistinguishable to the netcom subscribers. My experience with rules and PPLs on other lists has not impressed me. YMMV. Whatcha trying to do, eric, lead that anarchists?
