Help me understand.
I am frequently (~50%) getting Undelivered mail returned to sender when I try to email my cousin in Saskatchewan. Reason given is "Connection originating from an IP address with a poor reputation".
What we have determined:
1. If I send email from my iCloud,com account to his sasktel.net account that is when the mail may get rejected.
2. If I send email from my iCloud.com account to his iCloud.com account it doesn't get rejected.
3. If he sends email from his iCloud.com account to his brother or sister who have sasktel.net accounts some of those get rejected (with the same reason given.)
I tried phoning SaskTel support but they were unhelpful - pointing the finger at "Apple or Microsoft" !!!
Not likely to get resolved. May be overload during the Covid situation. But my question is: When you send an email (like I described in my case from iCloud to sasktel) and it gets rejected resulting in me receiving and "Undelivered mail returned to sender" email, does that message originate from Apple (since I am using an iCloud account), Telus (whose infrastructure I am on, or SaskTel (who hosts the email service I am trying to reach. ? Or perhaps someone else's router along the path between us.
