Mailing Issues
Posted: Mon Sep 11, 2006 3:46 pm
I'm using PHP5 on Debian. I'm sending out account activation emails when the user registers. It's a legit site and hasn't even been live, so therefore it couldn't even have been flagged some how for spam.
Gmail always receives the email perfectly, Yahoo gets it as well but flags it a "Bulk" (spam). Most other email providers don't even let it through at all. I posted this in Linux because it seems to pertain to my server configuration more than anything.
I checked the headers that gmail is showing, here they are:
The only thing I changed in there was my email address. Notice the daemon@localhost.localdomain as the return path. It doesn't make sense, because I'm setting my own return path in the headers when I send. I have a proper domain and static IP that my server is running on, shouldn't it say something other than that.
I'm by no means a pro at setting up LAMP servers, anyone have a few pointers?
Many thanks.
