I would love to know how the marketplace wants to handle "Official Mail," but I'm not expecting useful answers here.
The marketplace doesn't have a clue. We have a plenty of tools in the toolbox, from heavyweight S/MIME to lighter weight DKIM+VBR to proprietary Goodmail, but among the mailers with a stake in having a reliable spoof-resistant channel I don't see much interest in doing anything other than whatever they're doing now. If it were up to me, I'd use per-recipient password-protected RSS or Atom feeds with emailed notices that just say to check your feed, but that has patent issues. R's, John
