I have to second the advice to send email from a different domain. It's just going to be the case that the .date TLD is abused by people sending shadier dating-related emails and the operators of that TLD have poisoned the well by making it cheap and easy to do so. Even if you somehow got negative scoring in SpamAssassin fixed for your specific domain, there's going to be countless private, non-SpamAssassin-based rule sets out there that penalise .date domains. It is a similar argument to "why can't I send email out from $ARBITRARY_GHETTO_HOSTER ? I'm not a spammer!" You can argue forever that as you're not a spammer and can prove you've never sent any spam, ever, why would receivers penalise you just for being at an hoster that is popular with a problematic class of clientele? The answer being that recipients are just working with what info they have, and it'll be hard work to convince a significant number of them that you're different. Is the work worth it? Generally not; other options exist. Thanks, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
