I’m running into this with clients for whom we do web site work. Mail not being delivered to Gmail accounts. No bounceback, not being delayed, not marked as spam, just black-holed for no discernible reason. Like, clients losing money because sales leads never make it to them.
Over on mailop a Google employee said that gmail never silently discards email, that mail will always be delivered somewhere or else rejected at SMTP time, and that the only exception is that GAFYD customers (and similar) can set up rules themselves to delete email under some circumstances.
I’m on mailop as well. Sadly, what that Google employee said is provably false. -Andy
