I set up my outgoing email to relay through an external server. I used to have comcast business class but when I sold my house, my only option at my condo is the comcast provided by the HOA (Comcast communities) which is residential. So lots of sites refuse to accept email send directly from my server. Comcast has a relay but it has crazy low rate limiting which is a pain when we need to send emails to all players.
Out of curiosity, what are you using (software and hardware) for the email relay?
A homebuilt rack mounted server running Fedora and sendmail. I've been using/configuring sendmail since the 80's and we didn't have fancy .mc preprocessing back then.
The outgoing relay is a paid service by Hostinger which resells titan.email. I just set the configuration in the relay to use the same credentials I set up in my SMTP/IMAP connections in tbird.
