"... Since when do one's pals and banks or the GP / NHS etc send forged emails ?"
Since when does all non spam email guarantee to conform at all times to ever increasingly stringent email security measures?
I seem to recollect a certain amount of complaining wrt email originating from, presumably genuine, Plusnet/Greenby accounts. Am I mistaken in this?
Look. You can't have it BOTH ways. If you want to 100% block all spam emails at all times (which many do want) you need to not have an email account. If you want to 100% receive all genuine emails at all times (which many do want) you need to never block any emails.
Practical reality is somewhere in between. The email company blocks incoming email from known/listed dodgy originators; separately, it moves accepted incoming, but suspected 'spam' email, to the user's spam folder and leaves it up to the end user to decide - the only one who actually can (or not, as the case may be!). It also aids the end user with spam handling by providing an adjustable spam filter in the user account and a way for the user to identify missed spam in Inbox and incorrectly identified genuine emails in the Spam folder.
There appear to me to be two 'alternative' user approaches to the above:
1. Wait for a miracle - The AI "singularity", perhaps?
2. Blame it all on "Greenby"
