npub1jc6u6ggtwe8nf37axz0rdayqhn7r77aq9r3duj9uesr6axqnnk0q6y7v67 (npub1jc6…7v67) in my experience designing standards (especially learning from failure! 😅), it's best to state clearly what the intent is and use that statement to drive usage.
As a thought experiment, even if Mastodon/AP servers didn't add SMTP support, and assuming it'd be useful for that to work, it'd be trivial to add a rel=email to a webfinger profile, and easy enough for email clients to respect that.
Lots of possibilities! My main worry is that a fractured approach is a barrier to adoption.
