Have you tried sending these "official" messages to them on paper by
snail mail?  It will be difficult for the university to claim that a
paper letter was not received.  If Correos has a service where the
recipient has to sign for the letter, even better.

Staff might vent anger at you, but it may be hard for them to do
anything to you.  This is clearly sufficient for the university
to prove you sent it.

Once they can't actually punish you, you can offer negotiate some
other digital method to use, one that is ethical for you and that they
can handle easily enough in practice.

You could send such messages in both ways in parallel.
