The email landed in the spam folder. A bounced email means it didn't find the inbox. If it didn't find an inbox there would be no log for him to check. Technical knowledge of emails and what the terms mean out him instantly as a liar. The fact this is still up on the front page is an embarrassment for the tech community in my opinion.

Are you going to apologize for being confidently wrong? Or confess your own incompetence and embarrassment?

> Update 1: Google Workspace Email Log

> Some commenters questioned whether I could reliably determine why Google rejected the email. Here's the screenshot from Google Workspace's admin email log search, showing the exact bounce reason . . .

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume this wasn't in the original version rather than that you didn't actually read TFA, but it says straight up that it didn't make it to spam.

> Google's mail servers reject the message outright. It doesn't even get a chance to land in spam.


Please don't cross into attacking another user, no matter how wrong they are or you feel they are. We're trying for something different here.

Dude, you keep on just believing a blog post even though it makes no technical sense. That's why none of the hardcore nerds are even approaching this and why Viva are going to sue.

An email bouncing means it was rejected because it did not find an inbox or a recipient. You AI to question if that is true. So if the email service provider says we don't know who that belongs to, why would they provide logs.

And what email service provider is rejecting an email over a RFC thing when millions of emails a day because most devs don't care about the RFCs and only an idiot would have two different mail infrastructure and code versions running for gmail and workspaces. Especially on the sending and receiving part.

So are you going to apologies for being confidently wrong? Because I'm technically and confidently right. Again, which is why the hardcore nerds are leaving this the fuck alone because they saw me wreck the post in minutes of it being posted.


I think something is wrong with your blog
