Many SMTP servers used to standardize message format, and stopped in
order to avoid breaking DKIM signatures.  Won't ML do so too?

I think you're confusing SMTP with SUBMIT here.

No, I didn't mean to.  Since you raised this topic, I think it's part
of submission servers' duties to check format and content (e.g. From:)
of outgoing messages, before signing.  SMTP receivers used to
standardize header and MIME structure too (e.g. encoding
auto-conversion); they stopped after DKIM, IME.

The question is where do MLMs position themselves in that respect?
Perhaps somewhere in between?
