Unfortunately, today's broken internet infrastructure has removed this useful
feature from the mail system. If more MUAs implemented a "Guaranteed Delivery
Service" out of the box, maybe we can get proper connectivity reinstated?
<wishful thinking>
Plug this feature into Thunderbird, and watch the masses complain to their
ISPs that they cannot use "Guaranteed Delivery" via their networks... FUN!
The base problem with the "proper connectivity" is that nobody has a good way
to allow legitimate e-mail directly from Joe Sixpack's PC while at the same
time not accepting spam from the zombie bot software on Joe Sixpack's PC.
And you're not going to fix *that* issue until Joe starts running software
that isn't quite so prone to zombification.
