i agree with this as well as ensuring that their format is properly documented... it is possible that other mailers running in parallel may also be able to use them as semaphores to know when to or not connect to other systems... plus the ability to have a monitor tool that can display the status of mail and system connections kind of like what frontdoor, dbridge and other full-feature mailers have...
