Is that the way you try to convince people?

Well, as you say, rogue anti malware = malware and therefore
irrelevant in context. You are complicating things for no obvious
reason.

You can't trust any "anti whatever ware" running in the same
environment as a "whatever ware" allowed to run with equal
credentials. That's just a false assumption. "Anti whatever ware" are
mainly "because I don't know better" solutions for average consumers
and CYA security solutions for businesses.

Super Gravity is free and has been around for 10+ years, works on all
Win platforms and even lets you decode files if you're into that kind of
thing.

It's about as clean and easy as it gets, it's a real Usenet client, not
a broken Web/Email client.

No point, names mean very little in the FROM field, only the content
matters.
