Maybe it is (was?) a German problem. Here are some providers I know which Autoblock custom servers:

* web.de

* gmx.net

I also have to say that I always used a hetzner root server. Moved multiple times due to an upgrade.

I ALWAYS had to manually apply for removal of my Webserver. It worked for Yahoo. At that time it did not work for Gmail and Microsoft. I no longer was blocked but if I was writing for the first time to a recipient, I landed in the spam folder.

The software I used mailinabox and mailcow. Both had self checks. All green. I also used external scanners to check my config, all fine. You can check my GitHub (razemio). I even contributed to some issues for mailinabox.

This is not only true for selfhosting but also small providers. As an example:

* mailbox.org (auto spam Gmail and microsoft 2018)

All of this was a long time ago. Maybe I am just depressed from the bad experience and the FAQs are telling the truth. However it is hard to believe for me.

I am selfhosting since 1997 and I am working in programming / DevOps.
