yep, this is going to make a lot of the low end mail hosts like mail.com
and sherweb act like its 2023 or lose their customers, as it should.
eventually cities banned the horse and buggy so they could allocate the
shit sweepers to other duties. Google handles billions of emails, its the
right thing to do to close the door on the easily spoofable hosts like that
who dont support industry best practices so they dont have to spend
resources building showers for the dirty servers
