ACCEPT THAT YOUR MARKET HAS GROWN BEYOND USEFUL SIZE AND NEED A
HEALTHY SHRINKING.
We're an ISP; don't shoot the messenger.
Microsoft may be creating some confusion. Introducing something novel
and still unknown to the rest of us. more power to them! Growing
pains are worth it if at the end of the tunnel there is less and more
relevant mail in my inbox. Relevant in my own view, not what your
customer think should be relevant to me.
So why is it only Microsoft with these issues. I feel it is rather
incompetence than pushing the market. Google does it a 100 times better.
They also throttle incoming messages, but when they do, most of the time
they are right about the messages being throttled, because of domain
reputation. We never had IP reputation issues there. Unlike Microsoft
who immediately drops the IP reputation if 2 or 3 bad messages slip
through, at least that's the feeling I have with them.
Decode their base64 or otherwise obfuscated messages and add a link to
collect meaningful feedback from recipients. Not stupid GIF-trackers,
you won't get that feedback from savvy recipients. Also not surveys
funneled to parrot the feedback they want to hear instead of the
feedback they need you hear (and you need to act on).
No one bothers clicking a link in a message. They just mark it as spam,
even if they opted in for it.
