[itdiscuss] Domain getting tagged as spam in gmail

mtw.org doesn't seem to have correct info in DNS for your SPF record.  That
would help in scoring the e-mail properly.  You can check for yourself here:

Subject: [itdiscuss] Domain getting tagged as spam in gmail



Is anyone else having an issue with email from your domain getting tagged as
"SPAM" in Gmail and Yahoo mail? This just started a few weeks ago for us.
@mtw.org messages are going into the Gmail Spam folder for any new people we
connect with and send email to.

 

For instance, a person gives us their email address and wants us to
communicate with them. We add them to our contact list and then send
something to them. We don't hear back from them and so someone calls. Come
to find out, our message to their gmail account went into their gmail spam
folder.

 

This is not happening for people with whom we've been corresponding for some
time - only seems to be new gmail accounts. 

 

Of course, Gmail customer service is awesome (if you can find them) - I'm
being facetious here - they don't write back. So, have been digging around
the web trying to find an answer. 

 

Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone have any thoughts on what
might be happening. We've seen this with Gmail and Yahoo email - both of
whom are using Postini I believe - and only in the past couple months. I've
checked our status on the spam blocking services and MTW is NOT blacklisted
on any of these that I can tell or see.

 

Any thoughts?
