Hm, I’ve just never actually seen that. I started out with the ispmail guide plus SPF/DKIM/DMARC tutorial from linode and DO, and applies those on my cheap server. Just worked, never had issues (and this is the fifth server already, previously I’ve been with OVH, Hetzner, Online.net and KimSufi).
It’s just, I can’t believe that it’s just luck that I never had these issues. Is it luck? Is it because people try configuring email without such tutorials (which actually would be quite complicated)? Is it because people with no devops experience try it?
On the other hand, if a devops engineer can set it up in a day, it’ll cost you ~270€ (taking a usual European salary for such a person), which would you get 27000 emails with this service. So it might actually be worth it.
- ek750 9y agoI’m curious what sort of email you’re sending and at what volume. Depending on the use case, it may be easy to start clean, but if you’re sending millions of emails a day, you may find it difficult to keep that clean reputation. It’s certainly not impossible but takes more work as you scale up. I think that’s part of the attraction of these services. Pay for it to be their problem (in theory anyway) :)
