Guess it would be worth mentioning how to spoof initial Received header for those who self-host their email and run Postfix as their MSA/MTA: https://www.void.gr/kargig/blog/2013/11/24/anonymize-headers...

Notice: This works when you have a separate MSA (submission) service listening on a separate port (587 by default), which is a proper approach; not when you send to MTA on port 25.

I don't know if their MTA is currently having problems, but it took my MTA 12 minutes to deliver the message to theirs. When I telnet to them on port 25 the welcome banner doesn't seem to appear.

If they're using some form of artificial delays or greylisting, that's all well and good, but it's not really suitable for this sort of service. I imagine a lot of people would get bored of waiting and just leave.

So I have to click a mailto link rather than letting me copy and paste the email address? I don't have a mail client set up on this machine. Good one....
