No. Blame the complexification. The whole alphabet soup of SPF, DKIM, DMARC, etc. has taken the ecosystem down the wrong path for many years already, to a point that there are inconsistencies between the RFC specifying email and the RFC specifying DMARC (IIRC one has been recently discussed on this list) and that it is a full time job to keep tracks of changes to all the relevant RFCs; and their details; and the different implementations and variations (of which the "big guys" are the most influential ones). Meanwhile, I hear that iMessage, Whatsapp, Messenger, etc. do not suffer these problem and are a good replacement for internet email. What makes the difference between them and internet email? Sad fact: I use Telegram and SMS more in my legal practice than I use internet email. Even though email provides for much easier ways to preserve and introduce into evidence in court rooms.
