This would never work for me the way I am set up.

I control my email address, but not the web server at the domain (all the mail gets forwarded with procmail).

What's your setup? All it requires is being able to put a single file inside /.well-known/, or have whoever's running the web server at your domain do that. If you can't do that, I'd argue you don't in fact control the domain. (If they're sending stuff to you via procmail, they can intercept it at any point...)
