:-) Looks like an authentic mail. Who needs crypto-signatures?

It isn't black/white and you probably know. E-mail is broken by design. Any
attempt to fix it has failed so far. It is abused.

I don't defend Hetzner here. Yes, if they made it to be ranked #2 SPAMer on
some Web page they have a problem especially considering the fact that they
are not #2 in size. I'll tell them that other customers run into a SPAM
problem if they don't mitigate that.

Still, Google made a mistake by tagging Boris mail as SPAM. As you already
wrote it probably was triggered by the content filter. They don't tell. To
get those filters right is probably impossible. BTW, I liked your idea to
tag propaganda you mentioned in some interview.

I'll leave it to this. I've wasted way too much life-time on anti-spam measures
already just because I'd like to run my own mail server and can read e-mail
without other SPAM^h^h ads around it.

The real problem are those fucking parasites aka SPAMers. May they rot in hell.

Bye,

Frank
