I would be 'OK' with this rule of theirs if I'd be certain it applied to everyone.
At this point I asked them 3 times what they do about GoDaddy that operates secureserver.net . If you go on https://secureserver.net there is no contact information whatsoever. But yeah, they aren't answering _this_ question so it seems not only do they have arbitrary rules, they apply them arbitrarily as well.

Let's say that as a hobby mail server operator, I've grown a very thick skin in dealing with ISPs. It's really an unthankful job with a lot of pitfalls. I think what Telekom does would not be needed and must feel really strange to non-Germans (where this imprint nonsense is more promiment, sadly). The positive thing is, at least they react quickly and helpful, in contrast to other providers who don't give a damn and you have to find your way around. But I agree, it's a bit unfortunate...
