I remember some articles on HN a while back about running your own email servers. I think they basically said that they would end up in spam for just about every contact. It seems like most people today use email that runs through Gmail. Who get to more or less decide how the worlds email should be processed. SMTP was meant to be an open protocol. It's really messed up what happened to it.
- kondro 3y agoIf you have DMARC and DKIM configured correctly, use a dedicated IP (so you can control its reputation) which you don't just start sending millions of emails from and have your SMTP server configured to communicate via TLS/SSL, you'll probably be fine -- assuming your IP hasn't been blacklisted in the past.
