Getting notes together for a meeting tomorrow where I have to explain to people that I have zero control over how someone elses's mail server handles final delivery of our E-mail messages.

Some of this is probably related to sub-optimally configure SPF and DKIM stuff, which has since been fixed. Now, since there was a chink in the armor, we must now be the cause of all possible delivery issues.

I don't get to get to see actual SMTP logs with SendGrid, however, I can see in the portal that a message was "delivered," which for my purposes is the MTA on the other end has the message and does with it what it wants.

Correct, worse than the baseline.

But I'm in Houston on AT&T rather than home on FiOS, so could just be a crappy local network.

Send-MailMessagePowerShell cmdlet... this has so many immediate uses.Testing went great.

Or it could be the crappiness of the website in question.

Does one need to setup a email relay for it to work from a workstation?

Having intelligent users is what is keeping me in this gig. I love my users so hard.

Probably, I already had an SMTP relay going for O365, and just pointed it at that and it worked.

Same as any random SMTP host. Don’t need it but does your target allow random senders?

Extreme temperatures this week.
