What's funny about that is most think if "it works" (without setting up the
proper email relays) it's working right. They don't realize they're
sending emails directly to the recipient's mail servers. Some are rejected
because of no reverse DNS, others are rejected for other reasons and the
sender doesn't even know about those failed messages. They just think
because it works to their own account, or a yahoo account, that it works
for everyone.

I've tried to explain that to customers of the years.. all some care about
is the appearance that "it's working". :) They don't care how, why or
who... and move on to the next issue.

Always happy to help. I've got all my stuff switched over to OAuth for
GMail and O365 and so far so good. The only issue with O365 is their
refresh tokens can expire if not used and re-registration needs to
happen... not a huge deal, but it's annoying.
