I tried sending an email out to some folks (from Protonmail) and I got an 'undeliverable' message back with all the iCloud email addresses I sent it to rejecting the email (3 addresses). The email had an Excel attachment, so I thought maybe that was the problem. Still didn't work after removing it. I also have an iCloud account, so I checked that I could send a 'test' email, and that worked fine. I kept reducing the email content until I determined that iCloud didn't like this one website link: (I guess we can't post links here either?) ...to find it: duckduckgo "ivermectin meta analysis" it'll be the top hit. I guess they consider it "disinformation" or something?

I didn't realize Apple censors information that much. The funny thing is I can send the link going the other direction; iCloud to Protonmail.

Error returned in undeliverable email:
Diagnostic-Code: smtp; 554 5.7.1 [CS02] Message rejected due to local policy. Please visit https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204137
