Do you run into any issues with your outgoing mail being marked as spam by the recipient? Particularly with GMail’s aggressive filtering?
I imagine 99% of outgoing Amazon SES traffic is transactional or marketing email for various online services. I worry this could make my personal emails look more like spam to the big providers. Or maybe it works out fine.
- kevincox 5y agoFWIW running a service who's job is to send email, I have found that GMail is one of the best providers to send to. They strongly value domain reputation and are popular enough that it was quick to build up a basic reputation. Now my messages are rarely flagged as spam even coming from a Digital Ocean IP address. I just rely on DKIM. This is in contrast to Microsoft which seems to rely mostly on IP reputation and trying to send from a new server is incredibly difficult as they (reasonably) treat unknown Digital Ocean IPs as likely spam but (unreasonably) don't allow a good domain reputation to override that.
