There would be quite a few from me due to some confusion on what to whitelistist and multiple tests. I use the club email forwarders whenever possible but if SendGrid is the culprit it's probably best if I switch the account to my email and the next VPPR can just create their own free account.

I only see one entry in the logs for the last 4 weeks for buffer.com.

Not sure what you are trying to do since your email address is  This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.o do with buffer,com

Based on that I'm guessing they're still blocking theeir verifiction emails where we supposedly rejected them at some point. Don't think this battle is worth fighting any further and will see about switching the buffer.com account directly to my email.

Thanks for the efforts Brian.

Buffer.com has escalated this internally and I don't think there is anything else to do from this end but I thought their latest reply was interesting.
 
Hey there, Joe. Thanks for the information. Buffer migrated away from SendGrid as our third-party email service around 2019. Since then, we've used a service called  Customer.io  for sending these types of emails.

The tone suggests they may be accidentally using SendGrid.

Whatever the end result is may be of no value to us but thought it best to have it documented anyway.

Your club can set up and use an archive email. This avoids future risk of losing email access through officer and site admin turnover.

See in "Club archive email address + login info"  this document;

Well the SPF records still point to sendgrid and several other email processors, which is usually to sign of an organization that allows spammers to use their service,
