Brill! Glad it helped.

Sounds like a SPF / DKIM / DMARC issue. You can test how your domain is set up here. https://www.dmarctester.com/

Ideally you want all three set up. But you must have SPF and DKIM or you’ve no chance of staying out of spam folders.

Yeah. The thing is that full retail price is hiked up, not the normal price. Side stepping the legislation designed to prevent this kind of behavior.

Not in every instance but for sure it does happen. Some of those ‘non member’ prices are so high as to be laughable.

I wish someone would take a look at ‘Clubcard Prices’ and ‘Nectar Prices’ etc. Ie discounts if you have the loyalty card.

I’m sure they’re just a way to circumvent trading standards legislation about needing to have been on sale at the higher price before starting a sale. Because it’s not a sale is a ‘club price’. The store can show a massive discount when it was never on sale at the undiscounted price anyway.

The thing with serverless is you’re paying for iowait. In a regular server, like an EC2 or Fargate instance, when one thread is waiting for a reply from a disk or network operation the server can do something else. With serverless you only have one thread so you’re paying for this time even though it’s not actually using any CPU.

While you’re paying for that time you can bet that CPU thread is busy servicing some other customer and also charging them.

I like serverless for it’s general reliability, it’s one less thing to worry about, and it is cheap when you start out thanks to generous free tiers, at scale it’s a more complex answer as whether it is good value or not.
