It's not you, it's Big G: Sneaky spammers slip strangers spoofed spam, swamp Gmail sent files

Re: DMARC prevents spoofing

If Gmail used DMARC "p-reject", tens of thousands of their users (including many small to medium sized businesses) would have a big problem. These gmail users send email asymmetrically. Some or all of their outbound email is through infrastructure unrelated to gmail, but all of their received email is via gmail.

What RFC standard? There are no RFCs about mailbox formats and representations.

We're long past believing From: lines. Aren't we? Gmail's "sent box" feature can be easily demonstrated, can't it?
