There are a few services that can do that, I use SMTP2GO and send sufficiently few emails that I’m on their free tier. It has DKIM certification which helps deal with the bouncing issue you’re seeing.<div><br></div><div>It’s been a while since I set it up, but if I recall, you sign up for an account, then put the appropriate entries in your DNS records along these lines (see below, this is in Cloudflare) That handles the sending side. Separately I use forwardemail,net to forward all inbound emails to the domain to my gmail account. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><img alt="PastedGraphic-1 copy.jpeg" src="cid:F6E4A274-830E-408B-AAE1-C615BC124BA6" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Finally I set up “Send as” in gmail to add my custom domain as an option for sending through smtp2go. Now I can use Gmail as the client, and choose whether to send from my gmail or custom domain. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>On Apr 28, 2023, at 16:07, <bob@metaprosystems.com> <bob@metaprosystems.com> wrote:</div></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div><meta charset="UTF-8"><div class="WordSection1" style="page: WordSection1; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;"><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">I have my own personal domain. I find that I am frequently blocked when I send email to a Gmail account. I have talked to my provider, and they have taken the actions that Gmail recommends. See a sample of the rejection message below. Something I will get a reject and I send the same message out a second time and it works okay. Other times it fails again. I have a Gmail account of my own that I can use but I prefer to use this one.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Any Advice?<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">This is the mail system at host<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://unirelay06.b.hostedemail.com/" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;">unirelay06.b.hostedemail.com</a>.<o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not be delivered to one or more recipients.
