- 7Why am I getting DMARC and SPF errors when emails deliver fine?Third-party email marketing services often fail basic SPF checks within DMARC reports because their sending IPs are not included in your domain's DNS records, even though inbox providers still manage to deliver the messages. This discrepancy leaves administrators guessing about real deliverability health and creates confusing tool warnings that hinder proper configuration.
- 5Why is my website silently blocked without any notification?Gateway security providers often block domains without notifying the site owner, leaving sites completely unreachable for users on specific networks like Xfinity. Because these blocks bypass standard blacklists and provide no alerts, owners only discover the issue by accident, which prevents them from diagnosing downtime or restoring access for visitors.
- 4Why do self-hosted emails keep going to spam?Major email providers constantly flag self-hosted messages as spam, leaving owners unable to reach inboxes reliably. This forces people to abandon self-hosting entirely and rely on external services like Fastmail just to get their messages delivered.
