Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

plus the bit where you wait six weeks for a response to your request that they unblock you
none of this process is fucking simple
I've never had to ask MS to unblock me and it sure as hell doesn't take 6 weeks or even 3 days for them to automatically see if everything is right again.
I even set up a non traditional domain with a "non-generic" tld a couple of years ago and I think it was around 16 hours or so before my test emails were hitting outlook inboxes.
Additionally, I think Google still wants SPF setup though it is pretty useless now. And if your RUA was set up right, as I recall, you get an automated email from MS telling you why your mail went to spam (or was rejected), which is the point of it to begin with.
I guess if it worked for you it's perfect! Well done.
As a tip for next time, if you really want to host your email but you don't want to put up with dealing with emails being sent to spam boxes, you can just use an SMTP relay/proxy provider. Your email isn't hosted there but they do send it on and will be the 'source' mail server and is going to be much, much, much cheaper than paying someone to host your email for a bunch of users.
you didn't bother reading the thread first, did you
as a tip for you next time, shut the fuck up when someone with experience tells you you’re giving shit advice
I go have one rare afternoon nap and the (un)professional services posters come out on stage, smdh
oh there’ll definitely be more
