This is really quite fascinating. There is exactly one ISP that is blocking mail from the mail server I run, which is used to deliver mail for infosec.exchange - t-online.de. It annoys me to no end that I see people try to subscribe to infosec.exchange and the confirmation emails are rejected. So, I contacted their postmaster, and to their credit, they got back to me very quickly, but they are basically saying "yeah, you need to use one of the big mail providers if you want to send mail to t-online subscribers".... Ok then. My apologies to any t-online subscribers (who probably can't see this anyhow), but you'll apparently need to use a different email account to register.
and I'd like to say, I'm pretty darn good at running mail servers after 30 years of doing it.
@jerry I think the conclusion to draw here is that t-online are bad at it
@andrea @jerry Unfortunately, they are on of the largest ISPs in DE
@beirer @jerry do people actually use ISP-provided mail?
@andrea @beirer I can definitely say that yes. Yes they do.
@jerry @andrea @beirer i already realized that was a bad idea when I was a kid in the early 2000's and I saw that all the ISP:s offered email accounts.
