Also, it's hard to optimize for the servers that send us one message a

but the total volume compared to the effort against the major spam
campaigns, it's hard to get that high
enough on the priority list. We did make some changes for that for
smtp time blocking, but it doesn't move any of
our numbers because the number of messages affected is tiny... and
when you're talking about IPv6, even small
numbers like that can result in large enough holes for spam campaigns.
Hi Brandon,
Thank you for responding here. I would love if Google could support the
smallest servers better.
I run my own mailserver for my wife and I, and usually it is okay. But
the tools available from
Google require hundreds of messages a day, and we probably hit 20 on a
very active day.
And a very technical question: I changed my SPF records to allow a
second server, and that
seemed to change my reputation - messages then started going to spam. Is
that the cause?
(I was updating to a new version of the OS, and the process involved
moving to a new
server and then back again. I need to do this upgrade again sometime
and don't want to
destroy my reputation again).
Again, mostly, thanks for jumping in here.
John
