Here's what I have heard, but haven't had time yet to verify or read deeper into. Not so nice things, though: - It is said to increase security for mailbox owners because seeing the companies logo they now they can see the message really is from "brand.com". I still doubt this will work, because I could easily create a logo that looks similar to brand.com, but use "brånd.com" including valid SPF/DKIM/DMARC which AFAIK are conditions that have to be meet in order to display a BIMI logo. - It brings more advertising to your inbox. - It establishes a payment mechanism for receivers, which they can exert on email marketing companies and their customers. "We will not display your company logo in the (web)mail client unless you pay us money." p@rick -- [*] sys4 AG https://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Schleißheimer Straße 26/MG,80333 München Sitz der Gesellschaft: München, Amtsgericht München: HRB 199263 Vorstand: Patrick Ben Koetter, Marc Schiffbauer, Wolfgang Stief Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Florian Kirstein _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop
