Mandatory authentication is also a bad idea IMO. Obviously authentication

I tend to disagree. *I* don't want you to receive a message that is faked
and pretends to come from me, but doesn't. Even if you don't care, I do.
I would strongly prefer a system that would not allow this. And my gut
feeling is that most users would be with me on this.
