✉️ Wakapi.dev fails to send e-mail to users with Yandex inboxes

[muety]

Wakapi occasionally sends e-mail - mainly weekly reports and "forgot password" mails. I recently got a couple of bounce alerts from Yandex, stating that the messages were rejected by the spam filtering system. For example:

< < < <redacted> > > >: host mx.yandex.net[77.88.21.249] said: 554 5.7.1 Message rejected
under suspicion of SPAM; https://ya.cc/1IrBc < https://ya.cc/1IrBc > 1657897763-XQZpZYwOS7-9MdOsfeJ

I contacted Yandex support and got the following reply:

Hello,

We are sorry that you have any difficulties when communicating with users of our Mail. The fact is that the Mailbox.org service you use to work with mail was blocked on the territory of the Russian Federation by Roskomnadzor: https://blocklist.rkn.gov.ru/ < https://blocklist.rkn.gov.ru/ >

In this regard, the exchange of messages with Mailbox.org mailboxes is temporarily suspended.

Hope for your understanding.

Mailbox.org is the provider which Wakapi.dev currently sends e-mail through.

Apparently, Russia has blocked that provider. As a consequence, users of wakapi.dev, who have their mails hosted at Yandex, won't be able to receive reports, etc. Just wanted to let you be aware of that.

A solution would be to change Wakapi's sending mail provider. I'll consider this in the medium run.
