Not impossible, just may require cooperative receiving systems. If this
is a planned event, getting whitelisted ahead of time helps a lot. If
the mail is B2C, getting whitelisted at Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail and AOL
would be a starting point. If the mail is B2B, then a lot less of the
mail will traverse a small number of choke points, and one is somewhat
likely to encounter less impedance on the receiving side. All assuming
the email will not score poorly in content analysis or IP reputation.
