MS Outlook Blocking Tutanota Emails As Spam
MS Outlook Blocking Tutanota Emails As Spam
Tuta is the secure email service, built in Germany. Use encrypted emails on all devices with our open source email client, mobile apps & desktop clients.
Started in mid November and despite repeated requests from Tuta(nota) and reassurances from MS, it's still happening and MS have gone silent on the subject.
This is just another attempt by Micro$uck to make everyone use their email services. Micro$uck doesn’t want any competition, they want to rule the computer world
I wonder if this is anticompetitive or anti-privacy. I doubt that Microsoft is even remotely concerned about the “competition” that tuta poses.
You’re right, it is probably an anti-privacy thing. God forbid they can’t do the telemetry and other nefarious that they do
Soo.. Proton is on block lists, Tuta(nota) too.. What sort of privacy friendly e-mail will NOT get blocked, or listed as spam. Asking for a friend.
Those are the good providers. If there were another good provider and this is being done with intent than they will just block that domain as well. I use a custom domain with proton, I think that would protect against this but maybe some folks more engaged could chime in before you take that as advice.
YouTube is clucking down on adblockers and ff BiGatesSoft is throwing fans at the shit with tutanota
It seems like Big Tech started noticing the thread of privacy respecting apps and services
On my job, they use Microsoft as main workspace, so one time when they tried to e-mail me on my personal e-mail, i never received one, they always sent again to my protonmail.... IDK why Microsoft does it.. but now it makes me think Microsoft is even more evil than i thought
It's possible that your work has problems with spam and has thus set up their own spam filter and that filter might be more aggressive.
There are also ways to change the spam filtering in m365 mail.
It's also possible that your work hasn't setup mail properly and protonmail is the one that rejects the mails. We had an issue at work where OOF auto replies didn't work to external gmails (and probably others) because Gmail rejected the emails (I had confirmed that Gmail was the one that rejected it via the email traces in exchange). That wasn't Microsoft's fault.
I can send stuff to my proton mail without issues from two different Microsoft 365 mails.
One missed email should not be interpreted as malicious intent. It's also honestly quite likely someone just misspelled or something.
bumble doesn't let you use an @tuta.io address for your account
I hope everyone here has deleted their Microsoft account ;)
It's not about us. It's about the rest of the world, a large portion of whom uses M365. These blocks mean we can't communicate with potential employers, family, government institutions, universities, etc.
Here I am, maintaining several block lists (max of 500 entries per list) on our M365 tenant of spam and phishing domains and addresses, and not a one comes from Tuta, Proton, or any other privacy provider. Nearly all are gmail, outlook, and icloud, with a few customs sprinkled in. Their claim that it's to fight spam is BS.
Update: Emails from Tutanota.com no longer go to Spam in Outlook.
