You guess wrong. It is useful. I'm declaring what's valid and
interested parties can use it, and I've seen they do, to help judge
what they've received.
By the way, my apologies for using your domain as an example. I could
have just as easily setup a separate subdomain for this test. I was so
surprised to actually find a domain that used -all that I immediately
put on my ``for science'' hat and proceeded to test.
Did Hotmail accept the message over SMTP, or also deliver it to your
inbox? What was the detail of their spam judgement, e.g. based on
its headers? (Using Hotmail as an arbiter of quality!? Would be
interesting to hear what Gmail does.)
Yes, Hotmail accepted the message over SMTP from a non-approved IP
address and delivered it the Spam folder.
I'll conduct a better experiment later to see if there is a difference
in spam judgement.
(BTW, fully-justified text to 72 characters on a TTY is a pain to
read, especially when long `words' are common meaning every space has
to be two spaces on some lines, presumably more sometimes.)
Interesting observation. I've always found it to be the opposite and
you're actually the first to have mentioned it. At least for me, I find
that having the text wrapped at odd places, or not wrapped at
all depending on the terminal/software displaying it, is much more
difficult.
