>We may indeed nowadays be in an environment where we have little choice;
I don't think there is any doubt about that, and anyone who continues to express doubt is either ignorant or naive about the current state of email.
I just missed another notification from Launchpad this morning because the comment I was being notified about was posted by a user at a domain with a DMARC reject policy.
Some notifications from Launchpad are not being delivered successfully because of how Launchpad is sending them. This isn't going to change; in fact, it's going to get worse over time. Plugging one's ears and loudly singing "la la la I'm not listening" is not going to change these facts.
Frankly, I can hate on DMARC as much as anybody, but I don't think pissing into the wind is a good long-term strategy.
>but let's be clear that it would be a change made for operational reasons to improve the reliability of our mail delivery, and not for essentially moral reasons such as impersonation.
100% agreed.
