Hi Just a quick note that in the last week or so google seems have ratcheted up its rejection of mail from independent MTAs a notch or two.
IF you check your logs, you might see 550 rejects with a message such as Our system has detected that this message is likely unsolicited mail. To reduce the amount of spam sent to Gmail, this message has been blocked. Please visit https://support.google.com/mail/?p=UnsolicitedMessageError for more information. In this case this is for an IP+DNS combination that is known to never have sent spam. And of course the supreme irony of the matter is that google itself stands accused of injecting spam into people's email - see noyb.eu The first reaction is to be a bit bleak about this, but giving it some thought, there might be a silver lining to this: This might be a significant step in the split into "internet classic" the familiar favourite versus the "hinternet.google", the free, convenient, but also watered-down and shrinkflated version. Amusingly I think the DNG list here might have gotten a headstart on this, with its unconfigured reverse DNS entry - looking through the recent mails I see next to no participants from gmail.com - presumably because they haven't seen mail from here. So I think the only sensible reaction is to get word out that to participate in this list it is now even more important find a decent nongmail provider, or even better - set up your own MX/MTA. I know that this can be a bit of a PITA, but if you maximise for convenience rather than knowledge/privacy, shouldn't you be using MacOS/Android instead than Devuan ? regards marc _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
