I run my own email server at home on an Ubuntu box
I have done many things to adhere to commonly accepted standards
I have a static IP
My ISP has set my PTR for me
I just set up SPF records following advice here.
I have taken care not to have my server as an open relay
I have secured my box
But I do not have the ability, time or, the desire to pay for; (specialist
requirements) which will come with; (specialist prices)

Does this mean I am not respectable?
Why should I penalised?
Is this geek elitism and techno snobbery?
