It's ok that t-online customers won't get email from our customers.
Our own customers are informed that it's a destination service block and
they refuse to remove it ( self-entitlement and arrogance are the best
adjectives I can use for the "amicable" mails exchanged with the
postmaster/whatever contact, even with us trying to "comply" with
whatever they "demanded"), based on whichever "rule" they self-create
and enforce. They believe they are a 800lb gorilla ...
Meanwhile we'll be blocking whoever we want and will be imposing a self-
rule making someone we deem "untrusted" and that wants to send us email
must perform a ritualistic goat sacrifice and send us the video proof
with the CEO portraying some kind of official paper right beside it.
C'mon ...
I'm not defending or justifying what they do, don't get me wrong. ;-)
I try to explain how I worked around the issue. There's a lot of things
I find unpleasant when operating a mail server (in particular if you
have a new IP used by someone else in the past, or if you are in a
spammy neighourhood). This is one of the challenges.
I doubt Telekom changes their approach, but it seems some were lucky to
get unblocked without fulfilling their requirement.
Florian
