my intentions in this effort are not to educate anyone. That's out of my
control. I want to do what I can control and prepare submitted messages for a
safe journey i.e. make sure they meet the technical standards for best
deliverability.

Of course, I'd require application developers to write software that meets the
standard requirements, but that's a different story to me.
