I want to encourage everybody to set up their own e-mail infrastructure, as it's both fun, rewarding and useful.
However, deliverability has become really difficult. It seems during the ten years since I last ran my own e-mail, it has become an oligopoly. I have SPF, DKIM, DMARC and reverse DNS, my IP is not on any blacklists, and still my e-mail ends up spam listed in both Gmail and Hotmail. It seems to be getting a worse treatment by Hotmail but it's hard to say due to the small volume.
It is getting better but slowly, it seems.
- Scramblejams 11y agoYep. Haven't done DMARC yet, but I did everything else on the list years ago and Gmail's always been suspicious of my server.
- joering2 11y agoWhere do you host? what class of IP you have? I had some issues with Gmail but adding rDNS IPv6 and enlisting into DMARC fixed it. I sent about 125k per week, 80% gmail, no serious issues (I would known cause users pay for email's content).
