classful and classless

So I've learned there are classful and classless routing protocols, and there are classful and classless routing behavior.
I understand a classless protocol such as RIPv2 can have either classful or classless routing behavior; and a classful protocol such as RIPv1 can have classful routing behavior. But how does a classful protocol such as RIPv1 work with classless routing behavior? How is the routing different from classful routing behavior for RIPv1?

classful routing doesn't send its subnet mask when sending a routing update
classless routing sends its subnet mask when sending a routing update
Example 1:
lets say we have 3 routers connected and uses RIPv1(classful routing)
host1 --R1 -- R2 -- R3 -- host2
Host1's ip address: 172.16.10.10 GW: 172.16.10.1/24
Host2's ip address: 172.168.11.10/24 GW: 172.16.11.1/24
R1's serial ip address: 192.168.10.1/30
R2's serial ip address connecting R1: 192.168.10.2/30
R2's serial ip add connecting R3: 192.168.10.5/30
R3's serial ip address: 192.168.10.6/30
you configure RIPv1 on this network. host 1 and Host 2 will never be able to reach each others network why?
because R1 would advertise his route with this address 172.16.0.0/16 since it is a major network and it detects he is on a border he will summarize same goes for R3.
remember split horizon rule? R2 will never advertise R1 and R3's routes because of split horizon rule.
to fix this issue, configure RIPv2 by typing version 2 on router configuration mode
I hope this helps
PS:To all, please correct me if I explained something that is wrong -

Do you mean PC2'w IP address: 172.168.11.10 GW: 172.16.11.1/24? -

So you mean with classful routing protocol, classless routing is just impossible?
