Dear Benoit, thank you for your fast answer. I am not sure whether this applies to my issue, since I used Thunderbird authenticating the user with a password (although unencrypted). If I understand correctly, the issue is about unauthenticated users. Is that correct?

If we accept the email without authentication, anybody could trivially still your identity, which would be a major security flow.
