Most ISP don't care about it. But there are certain enterprises that know almost nothing about email, they employ "specialized tools" that scan and classify incoming email (read Symantec whatever) and make evereyone's lives harder.
- jjirsa 7y agoIt's not that they dont know or don't care - it's that not being super aggressive with filtering caused people to almost abandon email a decade ago because spam became unbearable for most people. Those "specialized tools" make email viable. Without it, everyone would be spoofing everything and you wouldn't use email anymore.
