I would add:

  "Give users a way to establish consent relationships and to determine
  if a given message is subject to such a relationship, and if so how."

TMDA for instance does this via its plus-address forms (sender address,
dated address, keyword address, etc).

  ObNote: TMDA is oft thought to just be a C/R system.  It isn't.  Its a
  mail filter that encodes and extracts special data via plus
  addressing.
