The things I read on this forum
- ignoramous 5y agoI mean, here's one instance where gmail's uber sophisticated AI seems to have classified a seemingly legit email spam? For a company that prides itself in customer service, I don't see any other way but to run their own email exchange (ala Amazon) because their private systems can then discern between email-ids of paying customers and spam, if nothing else.
- KronisLV 5y agoAnd then they couldn't use their resources elsewhere because maintaining your own email server is notoriously hard if you want good uptime. Managed services make sense in many cases and dismissing them isn't always a good idea if that's done so easily, without further consideration.

- owl57 5y agoI don't get that. Normal downtime is about the hardest way to fuck up email. I believe the last time my small office mail server didn't deliver legitimate mail was when I was 18 and haven't quite figured out yet what the hell was running on all these computers, and it literally ran a week with disk full.
- bryanrasmussen 5y agoI mean there are things about Gmail that might make one think - I shouldn't use this as the email of my business if it is important to me - lots of them exposed and upvoted on this forum.
