Drupal Version 5.7

Currently Confirmation E-Mail treated as spam on Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail.

For link sharing I am using am using, SHARE + FORWARD + MIME MAIL.

I have got the DB backup from couple of days ago, I restored it and mail is working fine not being marked as spam...

but when I restore back the DB to the current version, the mail is being marked as spam again...

I have made a clone of my website with the old DB I compared the modules etc side by side and every module is the same.

One strange thing, new user register GOES to spam.
Logged in with admin (super level) if i try to share a story using share-servicelinks-forward module. It GOES to inbox. if i login as reguler user and try to share it GOES to SPAM.

MY SPF Record as follows

v=spf1 a mx include:gmail.com,yahoo.com,hotmail.com ~all

Header of hotmail message which was sent to Junk

I THINK I SOLVED THE PROBLEM, it is caused by settings/site-information email setting, please disregard this post.

... what was wrong with the site information setting exactly though?

I have a gmail email address, get a gmail address and try to use it as site default email address. Email will propably work perfectly. But changing it to ex: info@yourdomain.com will result in spam to hotmail etc....

Everyone says create spf record which I done it but there is definitively something going on with drupal email.

Funny things are as follows with info@mysite.com set as default email:

If i enable mimemail module and set it to send Plain Text emails in hotmail it goes to Junk. If I enable mimemail html for all mails it goes to inbox. If i uninstall the mimemail.module everything goes to junk again.

if i enable mime.mail module with html> X-Mailer: PHPMailer [version 1.73]
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"

if i disable mime.mail module > X-Mailer: Drupal
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;

charset=utf-8;

all messed up OR I messed up it all

hi medya

have you try using module smtp ? http://drupal.org/project/smtp

This module allows Drupal to bypass the PHP mail() function and send email directly to an SMTP server. The module supports SMTP authentication and can even connect to servers using SSL if supported by PHP.

New features for drupal 5.0 include the ability to use SSL to connect to SMTP servers like gmail. Get it here: http://drupal.org/node/95819

Well, this sounds like you might have a problem with a blacklisted IP - have you checked the IP of your hosting against an email spam blacklist?

There are a few reliable blacklist checkers, unfortunately I can't remember them tho! :p

its not that hard lol

Fun really, i know the issue .. but save your dollars and send them to the opensource ppl

all thats wrong is in your relay .. use the filters .. take the time .. hug them thay work! SMTP server.

Limmit it what you need ATM

Spam is that but you can change that w. a simple change in your url name.. In SMTP srever...

also id sugest you limmit the relay so olny you can fward

Drupal docs + apache explain this .. look in your config.. says in the comments Exactly how

.. send your 100$ to the cause :) the rest you get for free..
