Hello Bill,

Thank you for taking the trouble to reply to me again and summarize your 
position.

I have read all your advice and understood it. The crazy thing is that we are 
flagged on SA when we send a single email, but not on Google ..., for example, 
and our emails go through perfectly.

We never send mass emails as a matter of principle!

Our problem lies in the massively over-rating of these 2 points:

FROM_SUSPICIOUS_NTLD_FP=1.999
PDS_OTHER_BAD_TLD=1.999

And that is really bad.

I would like to see a whitelist on SA so that reputable companies can register 
there. As idea.

Thank you for your time and the thoughts you have shared with me.

Best wishes from Germany

Hi Stefan,

No, I do not, aside from the implicit starting point: do not send spam. 
Make sure every recipient is an individual who has asked for your email and 
wants it, to the greatest degree possible. If you cannot do that, nothing 
anyone can tell you will fix your deliverability. SpamAssassin is not designed 
to allow "legitimate" bulk unsolicited email. Users who want that should 
whitelist the spammers of whom they approve and avoid showing it to SA.

Relevant to avoiding having your email seen as spam by SpamAssassin, sending 
less spam-like email and finding a new and better domain name are the full 
extent of my deliverability advice. I understand that these recommendations are 
not easily implemented for an established organization.

Also, please keep all SA discussion on-list. I am unable to provide private 
consultation of any sort.
