I think it's because, when you implement most protocols, if your end is
broken then you can't even talk to the other end. With ADSP, if your end
is broken then you can still talk SMTP and even sign with DKIM, but the
other end may silently discard your message. There's no feedback.
About 90% of the email sent to my personal email address ends up in a Gmail
junk mail folder, that I never check. There's no feedback there, either.
As far as SMTP is concerned, that mail was successfully delivered.
In both cases, yes.
If the recipient chooses to discard the email there's no obligation to
notify the sender - and I can't think of any existing case where the
recipient does so - let alone notify a third party.
Cheers,
Steve
