SPF / DKIM let you know that who you think you're receiving mail from and who you're actually receiving mail from are the same person. How that that come into this at all? Spammers can say they're from onlinechemist@spam.com via SPF / DKIM and it's still going to come through.
I don't know who you're even trying to convince. You're talking in hypotheticals and being extremely idealistic. How the email ecosystem works and how it actually works are two very different things. You cannot say "the reason must be something else!" as if - just because you can't make sense of the situation - it is not so.
- tjoff 9y agoThen you reduce the credibility of spam.com and possibly any links to whoever setup that domain etc. Not whatever IP was used. I'm not being idealistic when I say that I should be able to send an email over internet and have it delivered without someone banning me for reasons beyond my control.

- tjoff 9y agoVery much so, but in this case it is because of moronic humans doing deliberate harm for no good reason. That could be said about lots of things, but this is kind of remarkable in how much effort is being made to make something as bad as possible.
