I've also hosted my personal mail server for many years and I started
noticing that all mails would start going to spam on Gmail recipients. I
eventually changed to a new IP and they started working again. The old
IP got blacklisted at some point, and while it got whitelisted, its
reputation with Gmail probably never recovered.

That said, they still go to spam occasionally with the new clean IP and
I have a hard time understanding why. I like mail servers (probably in a
minority here) so it's frustrating that I get stopped by external
factors, since it seems to be passing rDNS, DKIM and SPF checks.

(I apologize for the double post).
