I don't like the implication that the work outlined in this article is reasonable.
Imagine if there were a detailed guide on how to keep the post office from throwing out the letters you send?
Because mail that you personally send out by definition isn't spam - so you are doing work to get around broken spam filters.
why can't you just pay $10 or something as a deposit and, since you're not actually a spammer and nobody will ever actually mark what you send as spam, never lose that deposit.
This guide should be like four lines long and take 5 mi utes to follow.
I mean after glancing at that write-up, I'd never dream of running my own mail server. I use gmail. Why would I jump through hoops and still risk having letters I took the time to write, still marked as spam? I lose on two counts! (invest time, for a worse outcome.)
This part of the industry is broken. I think a deposit paid by non-spammers which they lose if people start marking their letters spam, might fix it.
