All that is fine until it makes it to Microsoft. Then, it has nothing to do with the validity of an IP address or the website it originates from, if they think it remotely resembles spam, that's where it ends up. That's not reflected in any kind of stats because it doesn't get outright rejected. The sender is completely blind to classification as spam or junk because the sender domain/etc is all verified as "OK" by the recipient, but the content is spammy looking or junk looking so that's where it ends up.
Now, if there was a feedback system in place to let the sender know that "yes" your email was accepted as "real email" but then "we still think it's kinda spammy so we hid it from the recipient by stuffing it into a spam folder that they never check so nyaaa" that would be much more helpful.
Instead, people waste money thinking that any of these services will solve the problem. I'm saying that they won't...that's my experience.
I regularly have to tell people to look in their junk folders by sending a separate email from a different address that will hopefully not end up in spam itself. I can testify this this!
