You are not cynical, that's exactly what it looks like. The problem from the customer perspective: the mail provider lies and I cannot do anything about it. This is no different than goverment censorship, as this practice is covered by the goverment (at least here in Austria). The other problem is gmx silently deleting mails - interesingly the very same mails that did not get delivered by Magenta.
