Re: FN-FORUM: Emails being sent out getting filtered as spam

date posted 30th August 2005 17:04

What happens if you are the main recipient or a cc, not bcc?

Can't the client just whitelist it?

An SPF record is part of DNS that says which hosts are allowed to send mail
for the domain legitimately.

>Do you know what your filtering rules are ?

I don't have any rules that would affect this. I just right click
spam as it comes in and it normally ends up working.

>What happens if you send the exact same content from your normal email
client?

This works fine.

>Does your client's mail application mark it as spam?

It's a client's client so I'm not sure. I guess if I can stop it
going in my junk email folder on my set-up it will work for the end
client.

>Are you sending HTML as plain text?

The site sends out various messages and both go to my junk mail

> Do your emails contain stuff like 'Buy V1aGra. Veerryyy Chheeeep' ? ;)

lol

>What is the subject line?

Thank you for your registration for the Rimonabant Virtual Press Office

>Does the domain have and SPF record that includes the webserver?

No idea what this means. Norman are you here? You can guess which
site this is.

>How many recipients do they go to?

Just one and a bcc to me.

>Are the recipients in the to line?

Yes

>What email client? What spam filter?

Just outlook. No spam filter.

>You don't mention if it's a third-part host that manages mail servers.

Don't know much about the set up. When I used to use ASPMail I'd add
the SMTP server. Now I don't since using CDO. I guess I'm best off
talking to the hosting company.
