That makes sense.

My only concern had been "how do you authenticate this?"

However, after having slept a full night I realized that we need signed
emails, so the curator already needs to validate signatures.

The "injection" API could take signed messages too?

Right.

Yes. We should just accept a "signed message" API?

That would reuse all the same infrastructure we have for signed emails?
