In my opinion it is the beginning of the end of crappy freemail providers and their overzealous spam filtering. And it is about time.
If you run an RFC complaint MTA then there is really very little problem with SPAM at all -- I have many connections per second rejected for RFC non-compliance -- and get maybe 3 SPAM messages per day, all of which originate from the crappy Johhny-cum-lately freemail systems. It is just that the Johhny-cum-lately's (freemail, telco's, cableco's) have no idea how to run RFC compliant Internet Hosts and MTA's that have issues. Plus those that insist on being RFC non-compliant so they can communicate with the Johhny-cum-lately non-RFC compliant hosts and MTA's. A far better approach is to remain RFC compliant and if someone you want to communicate with insists on not being an RFC compliant Internet host and MTA, then tell them to bugger off and use old fashioned snail-mail that does not require a properly configured host connected to the Internet. --- The fact that there's a Highway to Hell but only a Stairway to Heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic volume. >-----Original Message----- >From: sqlite-users [mailto:sqlite-users- >boun...@mailinglists.sqlite.org] On Behalf Of Richard Hipp >Sent: Tuesday, 21 November, 2017 07:31 >To: SQLite mailing list >Subject: Re: [sqlite] Many ML emails going to GMail's SPAM > >On 11/21/17, Paul Sanderson <sandersonforens...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Coincidence!
