I've just discovered that after Dec 4 (see archive.org), Google
added a table at the beginning of this page:
https://support.google.com/mail/answer/81126

which I'll reproduce in text:
Sender requirement  Date added
Use a TLS connection for transmitting email Dec. 2023
Keep spam rates below 0.30% Oct. 2023

If anyone haven't seen that page recently, it is worth reading and
rereading.  It's the single most useful page I've ever seen about
sending messages to Gmail.

But, because I end up showing this to our own staff, a little trick..

whois 49.13.172.216 -h whois.ripe.net




RIPE can be a one-stop whois -- it's pretty complete.

ARIN's whois has a slightly different input format (other RIRs use 
RPSL format), but it generally picks the correct parameter type for a 
given input (if not provided).
I often use "-n" (no redirect) to limit the output, depending on what 
I'm looking for.

Wait; this list has moderation?

Best of luck; we're really good at this sort of thing these days...

Good luck for the surgery (if it's not already done) and get well by taking
the time you need. Health is important.

I'd say we'd hold the fort but the members here are all nice folks so I'm
not worried ;)
