I'm using One.com as web/email hosting and I have setup SPF, DKIM and DMARC and everything is OK and it works as it should.

However, Microsoft does not trust my emails, and for everyone using their email service my emails end up in their spam folder.

And when big companies uses some kind of ticket system I don't thing they ever see my emails at all.

I'ts frustrating and tiresome.

I have the option to switch to Microsoft Exchange as email service using my web hosting company, but then I feel like I'm only contributing to the problem as I give Microsoft more control over email in the world.

Any thoughts or advice?

  "Windows update is committed to helping reduce carbon emissions" 🌱

  "We don't support Windows 10 anymore so we ask users to dump their 500 million computers that are "too old" to run Windows 11 and buy new hardware"

Wie Microsoft die lahme Performance von Windows verbergen will

Microsoft (MS) Windows ist eine lahme Krücke. Das galt schon für Ausgabe 10; 11 ist noch zäher geworden. Es hat schon einen Grund, warum MS so hohe Mindest-Anforderungen an die Hardware stellt: W-11 verbrät unglaublich viel Rechenleistung. Die geht drauf für Augenzucker, vor allem aber für die enthaltene Bloatware. Wer braucht schon oder will überhaupt Hintergrundfunktionen für die Spielekonsole XBox, KI, und so weiter. Wer schon mal auf einer normal leistungsfähigen Hardware ein Windows mit einem Linux verglichen hat, reibt sich verwundert die Augen: Wie, so schnell kann mein Rechner sein? 😉 Auf Dual-Boot* Systemen,

...Geld, um nur ein Fünftel des Wertes zurückzubekommen.👈
#Amazon hat eine Infrastruktur aufgebaut, die einen Umsatz von 38 Milliarden US-Dollar generieren könnte, aber tatsächlich wurden nur 4,6 Milliarden US-Dollar erzielt, was bedeutet, dass nur 12 % der Kapazität gewinnbringend genutzt werden.

Der Umsatz pro Einheit von #Microsoft sank nach der Umstellung auf #KI von 17 Milliarden Dollar auf 11 Milliarden Dollar. 👉Das sind keine Start-ups, die noch am Anfang stehen, sondern die...

...generieren.

👉Für jeden Dollar, der für KI-Infrastruktur ausgegeben wird, beträgt der geschätzte Barwert nur 20 Cent, während ausgereifte traditionelle Cloud-Investitionen etwa 1,40 Dollar pro ausgegebenem Dollar generieren.👈

Die Wirtschaftlichkeit
Die Vermögensbasis von Amazons #AWS wuchs um das 3,5-Fache von 64 Milliarden Dollar im Jahr 2021 auf 224 Milliarden Dollar, aber der Betriebsgewinn stieg nur um das 2,4-Fache und erreichte damit den niedrigsten Ertrag seit 2015.

Not just the NHS. Universities and the whole UKRI are under its grip, incomprehensibly. How was this frog ever not going to be boiled? And it's not for lack of good alternatives.
