Thanks anyway, but I don't want to relay mail through someone else. If I did, I could stick with DO and be happy. My reasons include: - Budget - Simplicity - Visibility into the destination SMTP transaction for reasons of - Diagnostics - Statistics - Personal learning and experience - Running a mail system for others makes things more interesting - I don't have to worry about one more provider's machinations - A desire to be in charge of my own destiny I am in no way advocating this stance for others. As I wrote earlier, there's something to be said for paying to make it someone else's problem. But *I* don't want to do that. > Also setting up SPF, DKIM and dmarc seemed to make a difference in the > reliability of the email delivery. Yeah, that's an already-solved problem for me. There are still big email services that use single-decision IP-based blacklists. -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
