It always amazes me how people can read a blog post like this one that has a clear description of the problem with a log excerpts demonstrating the problem, and then people will confidently make up a completely different scenario that was not mentioned at all and blame the problem on that.
It amazes me people read that in this community and don't know for an email to bounce it means it didn't find an inbox. If it didn't find an inbox how did he check the logs?
User is clearly mentally disturbed. Read his other comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46992022
Social network is not good for the poor guy. I already regret replying to him in the first place but I cannot delete.
WTF you talking about? Rene, this is defamation and I'm probably going to take action because honestly, enough is enough. I'm fed up of folk like you who lack basic technical knowledge or any knowledge making up bullshit. Your hourly rate makes me like you have money to take.
Iain, I say this with the best of intentions. Please put down the keyboard. It is serving you poorly.
A log that clearly was from them and not the service provider. It amazes me you think you're so smart but haven't realised he doesn't have access to the logs you think he is showing.
Comments like this are why he's just landed himself with a major liability and I bet he'll be getting sued over this.
Pretty certain that you're wrong.
TFA shows an excerpt from the email log for his google workspace account, showing the bounce of email sent from viva.com.
Then, TFA states that he switched "the account" (his viva.com account) from using his GWorkspace address to a personal @gmail.com address, and asked viva to send another verification email. That one arrived.
At no point does TFA describe the author themselves sending a test email.
I've added a screenshot at the end of the blog post just to clarify that.

Would you mind looking into what an email bouncing is?
> I decided to dig into Google Workspace's Email Log Search to see what was happening on the receiving end.
It amazes me that you can read an article and draw the exact wrong conclusions
I wish I had your confidence in life
Please read the blog post you are making such strong claims about.
What that is liable? That is a very small claim.
