Based on the Instructions for Form 706, if the estate + taxable gifts is under the exemption limit at time of death, there is no need to file the Estate Tax Return.
If the Gross estate + Taxable gifts is close to Exemption limit, should a return be filed and get a clearance letter from the IRS -- just for peace of mind?
TIA

--There's probably no harm in filing the 706, and doing so starts the SOL. However, if you think the clearance letter is automatic, the rules changed in 2021. Now you must pay a $67 fee to receive a closing letter. See https://www.irs.gov/businesses/

you can use a news-client such Mozilla Thunderbird and configure
it to download this entire newsgroup or a handful of messages to
start with and from there you can either save the message on to
your machine as eml file or you can email the message to your
email account.

Unfortunately, you'll need some news-client on your machine for
the above link to work. Thunderbird Newsgroup is not available on
Google Groups because Mozilla killed it off to save money!!.

you will also need a news server. ISPs used to offer those for no
additional charge when you got internet. But that's no longer the
case.

go to <http://al.howardknight.net/>, paste it into the box, and click
Search. You'll get the article, including all headers.
You can then use the normal methods for saving a Web page, such as
Ctrl+P and selecting Print to PDF or similar (if available), or right-clicking and selecting Save Page As.
If you're talking about Ira Smilovitz's article in this thread, the message-ID, including the brackets that the Web page requires, is <4f7c7214-0ddf-4675...@googlegroups.com>
