   I don’t know whether a waitlist to get one’s mail delivered is genius or ridiculous. Perhaps both

     @CliffWade @novalauncher @jerry Seems particularly bad if they don't automatically allow people they themselves mailed to.

     Other than that I can fully understand people that are annoyed that greylisting doesn't work as well as it used to.

     @jerry Since I work for @novalauncher and handle all customer support via email, I get these replies all the time from users that contact us asking questions.

     It's mind blowing that someone would use something like this as to me it seems very weird and seems like you could miss some important emails at various times.

     the moment two different systems like this meet each other they will get into a bounce loop.

     @jerry

     I looked at the Wikipedia article about Boxbe. Somewhat predictably, this company was acquired by an email delivery service that helps companies to maximise the effectiveness of their mailshots. There are data protection implications. I mean, the first thing you do is give them access to your mailbox , the second thing is to create a whitelist from your contacts.
