--- Comment #5 from Seb35 <seb35wikipe...@gmail.com> ---
I don’t think (3) is a good solution since it’s a loss of functionality for
DMARC senders and it would add as much code as (2).

Between (1) and (2) and status quo, it depends if:
* we want show Yahoo, AOL, and other DMARC email providers that DMARC should
not be still used → status quo (DMARC senders think they could send emails
throught MediaWiki although they couldn’t – I don’t know if the sender of a
user-to-user email is warned if the email don’t reach the destination)
* we think DMARC is a rather bad solution but we want to mitigate it and we
don’t want to penalise non-DMARC senders, and we think DMARC will not be widely
implemented as it is currently (still not an IETF RFC) → solution (2)
* we think DMARC will be widely implemented in the near future (without proper
solution to send an email on behalf of somebody), or we want a quick and/or
transitional solution → solution (1)

I feel the more conservative approach would be to choose (1) and see how things
evolve, particularly given DMARC is not really standardised as of now and only
a big-scale experiment by Yahoo and AOL.
