It seems to me based on mailing list traffic like a lot of people are seeing the free side of MS email (outlook.com, hotmail.com, etc. not paying customers on ms365) doing what it so often does today: mystery rejections and dropping mail on the floor.
I assure you: if you're getting bounces because of this, your mail admin knows that it is happening and has NO WAY to address it.

CONFESSION:
My ongoing hatred of git is almost entirely grounded in my inability to switch FreeBSD branches without wiping and recloning.

Cloudflare is preventing me from logging into a customer’s WordPress that they horked up. Apparently I look like a bot.
