Have you thought of self-hosting mailcow? https://github.com/mailcow/mailcow-dockerized
It’s very easy to set up and fairly straightforward to maintain, if you have a static IP and it’s not impossible to get a PTR record then I highly recommend it. Yes you’re self hosting your own mail server but mailcow vastly simplifies this.
Alternatively plonking it on the right VPS can also work.
This is a Lemmy-ui bug, not related to CDN/cache.
I had submitted a bug report for it some time ago but it’s not that urgent in the great scheme of things so they didn’t get around to it yet: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1865
(the report speaks about this happening after you log in, but it’s the same thing).
