Hi All,
In 2015 i wanted to know how many SMTP Servers used STARTTLS, SPF, DKIM, DMARC. I’ve programmed a Webspider with PowerShell and collected about 100'000 Domains. Then made another Script that queried those domains and made SMTP Connect to find out if STARTTLS was in the ELHO Response.

Hi all, It's time to celebrate! I've written a whopping 2'000 Blog Posts in this Blog https://blog.icewolf.ch As you can see, i've started this Blog back in 2007 - it's now almost 15 Years old. At first, 2'000 Blog Posts does not seem to be impressive. But if you take that number and divide it by 365 you will get this result: 5.479. That means if you write a Blog Article every day, it takes you about five and a half year to get to these 2'000 Blog Articles.
