## Frequently asked questions

### Does this workflow prove that the email will be delivered?

No. It proves pre-send readiness and audit evidence only. Real delivery depends on sending infrastructure, recipient server policy, reputation, throttling, content filtering, and mailbox behavior outside these tools.

### Why inspect DNS if this is not a deliverability test?

DNS inspection shows whether the sender or landing domain has visible technical context worth reviewing before a send. It helps catch obvious setup issues, but it does not confirm successful SMTP acceptance or inbox placement.

### When should I use quoted-printable?

Use it when the body or headers contain characters or line structures that should be preserved in a MIME-safe textual form, especially for reviewable plain text or HTML source fragments.

### What should the handoff artifact contain?

Include the cleaned recipient scope, extracted domains, DNS findings, encoding choices, final tracked URLs, and a note describing what still must be validated during the actual send.
