    An email service can check every email and catch the vast majority of spoofed headers pretty easily.

    You’re right, it’s possible that the email is spoofed and passed the header checks, or that email is already compromised, or something.

    That said, using one’s one legitimate email in a phishing test. They said the same stuff. So we spent about a month calling them for every email they sent (including the “you need to sign up for training”)

    It creates more problems than it’s worth, and they caught the point pretty quickly.
