Thank you google, but i already made my own mailserver on vultr. Deliver-ability is perfect, rspam is just great and it's fast.

    >You should write a blog post about it! Are you a mindreader? That's exactly what i do ATM ;-) It's essentially: You need a DKIM, SPF and DMARK and some let's-encrypt-certs, additionally you can make a "site-verification"-key for google and ms, those two want to be threaded special ;) Hmm i thinks that's it more or less, for reliable delivery. You can test your mail with those "tool's": https://www.mail-tester.com/ https://www.mail-tester.com/ https://glockapps.com/ https://glockapps.com/ and some more... I post it here if i finished the blog entry. You need about 2 days to set it up, and a reminder for those who wants to go that path...keep all your spam mails (you need them to train rspamd later) The parts are FreeBSD13, blacklistd, pf, OpenSMTPD, Rspamd, Redis and Dovecot

      Thanks, did you try sending emails to Microsoft as well? I've heard they tend to penalise smaller operations more compared to Gmail.

        Yes no problem at all, however Microsoft is more focused on the DMARC policy so something like this a good idea: _dmarc.contoso.com 3600 IN TXT "v=DMARC1; p=reject" The p=reject is here the important thing. For google this is important: https://support.google.com/a/answer/183895?hl=en#zippy= https://support.google.com/a/answer/183895?hl=en#zippy= >>Google gives you a TXT verification record to add to your domain host’s DNS records. When Google sees the record exists, your domain ownership is confirmed. The verification record does not affect your website or email.
