    Thank you for this tutorial. Actually this does not make sure your emails are not marked as SPAM. You should mention things like SPF and DMARC, maybe even DNSSEC. And one gripe I habe: of course it‘s cool to be flattered, and to reply to that. But why not answer any of the questions that popped up? You started that discussion, after all ;-)
