My mail server routes via Amazon's SES, which provides an SMTP smarthost my instance of postfix can relay mail to. You authenticate each sending domain using DNS, and it even supports DKIM signing.
Until I did this, my deliverability, especially to GMail, was awful.
- _eht 9y agoThat's a smart way to work around a frustrating problem. It's a bummer there are so many loopholes to jump through.
- Tharkun 9y agoAssuming you're running your own mailserver because you like the idea of a decentralized web; isn't it kind of odd to then rely on Amazon?
- semanticist 9y agoMaybe, but in my case it would not be a valid assumption.
- amdavidson 9y agoHave you seen any issues with the envelope from not matching the the email address? ezmlm, for example, will not let you subscribe/unsubscribe
- semanticist 9y agoI've not run into any problems myself - even if I did, I think I'd rather be able to reliably email people with GMail accounts!
