Get all that in line and it should work fine here. I run quite a lot of email systems. I run them in the UK and not Canada or anywhere else so can't comment broadly.
I've been doing this for 25 years now, so I think I have a fair handle on how email works.
You can stuff your artisans up your arse. Email is email - do it right or fuck off.
[EDIT: I give up, I can't remember how to format a list on HN and I can't be arsed anymore - I created two lists above - they should be fairly obvious and each one has a heading followed by a colon]
- mekster 5y agoIt's only probably your domains already have enough reputations. I don't think you understand the complexity of having your emails marked as spams on newer domains. I've also been running my domain email for 15 years or so and configurations are easy but I still rely on external delivery services just so I get less chance of being flagged as spam.
- gerdesj 5y ago"I don't think you understand the complexity of having your emails marked as spams on newer domains." I've been doing email for 25 years (not 15), I have a few ideas about how it works.
- mekster 5y agoSince you think setting a few DNS entries would solve the problem, I doubt that. Have you configured a new domain for emails and got them work fine against Gmail etc?
