The mapping is hard, but inferring it is only harder (vs. letting the user/host decide).

As to trust, it only matters that an intermediate hasn’t forged a new header. You don’t need to trust the user - if they want to map their email to high-priority and pay for that usage, that’s their business (literally). If that’s more service than they paid for, then drop packets.

Or do you think UPS/DHL/etc should open every 2-day delivery to make sure it actually had to be there in 2 days?
