In the end, you will be filtering irresponsible companies' mail, checking

either cleaning up their network or by losing the occasional authentic
email to filters. That's the practical aspect.
But the responsible company is not invincible, and at some point might
contract a virus. Then it will go right through your defenses because
you decided to thrust this company a 100%.
