In article <CAL0qLwb3pLVFkOiuKeY38Kk9wEiesbyZCiBy72Ls5yRwN6EpdQ@mail.gmail.com> you write:

Among ADSP's shortcomings was that there was no way to test it other
than to turn it on and see how much damage it caused.  The answer was
frequently a lot, so they turned it back off and that was that.

DMARC certainly has its problems but the reporting is great. It makes
the surprises when you turn DMARC on a lot less, at least if your name
is not AOL or Yahoo.
