I have been sending through Ionos (was 1&1) for a decade, with only occasional problems (shared IPs getting on a blacklist). I have SPF working, and in the last few months I am getting routed into Spam 100% of the time. Even when I reply to email from my own family. It does not seem to matter if the recipients move the message out of Spam, you'd think a false negative on a legitimate message would be a wakeup call, ten false negatives should be an alarm. But there's no way to even help this. Google's online support has you set up tools that don't even measure the single-digit volumes I'm sending from my 20-year-old custom domain. I did confirm with DKIM that no one else is sending messages spoofing it, either. The Google monopoly is a real problem.

Last time I checked, IONOS doesn’t implement DKIM, so if that’s still true I’m not surprised. Especially since, due to the inability to create true aliases, so many GMail users use forwarding that breaks SPF.

I use the $1/month DMARC monitoring from uriports and it’s a little scary how many emails only pass due to DKIM.

Correct, I misspoke. I am only getting the DMARC reports from the domains to which I send email. Ionos doesn't support it and seems to have no plans to.
