Once I implemented DKIK and SPF, I had very few issues with Gmail. The biggest issues I’ve had were with corporate self-hosted exchange servers (my job inquiries at a particular company went unanswered and, when I contacted via an alternate channel, I heard that my mail had ended up in a “clutter” box

Huh that's all that's required to stay out of gmail's junk folders? DKIM and SPF?

Could had sworn there were a lot more work/tech required, a couple of years ago.

I did the DMARC stuff too. It's working great. I'm low volume tho, and there is never UCE sent from my setup.

Yeah if you got the first two, I automatically assume DMARC is used too. But am not familiar with "UCE"?

Also did you have to research your IP/domain that your VPS sits behind? Domain blacklists, and avoiding them, seems pretty straightforward. But I've heard mixed things about VPS ips, some mail services could block whole networks from VPS providers while others don't care as long as you don't spam?

UCE is the name for Spam in Postfix docs. Unsolicited Commercial Email.

I keep a Gmail for that exact reason.
