You'd call it malice to prioritize consumer protection over the a very small population of employees being temporarily inconvenienced by having some of their messages to mail lists delivered to SPAM and in some corner cases, actually unsubscribed from lists... while we invest time and resources to (a) assess how MTA's, MUA's and MLM's actually deal with these mail streams and (b) work with the standards community to improve the ecosystem by shaving off the rough edges we find? Neither ignorance or malice, simply the will to be an early adopter of young standards with proven consumer protection capabilities coming from a respected source. Yes, we are learning by doing and we are contributing all of that back to the community. What surprises me is how our efforts have been received by the community who produced these standards in the first place. _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
