I wouldn't mind these providers being aggressive with spam filtering IF they would just bounce the messages so i know WHY. I've had so many cases where an 'email wasn't sent' by our systems and then the logs show it was accepted by outlook.com for delivery, but never even showed up in the spam folder (apparently, if customers are to be trusted).

Many providers seems to do this, respond everything ok and then drop the message silently..

That actually should be illegal practice. But it is very unlikely regulators will ever catch up with that.

It's better for governments to have just a few big email providers, so authorities have easier life if they need to snoop on someone.

we shall see. the EU is not really incentivized to help Big Tech, since they want to protect small(er) businesses in the EU.

Been there, done that. This is be a nightmare, mainly for back scatter from spam runs.

You can’t control who sends email that looks like it’s from you. If your email were bounced because of a spf or dkim failure, you could get an unlimited number of emails.
