Outgoing Spam blocking methods [php]

[Hypertext]

I use SMTP, but I do have POP3, or mail() available.

Any message I send, containing only text, always goes to spam/junk on Hotmail, outlook (sometimes), G-Mail, AOL Mail, and more popular providers.

Oh yeh lol i trailed off:

So has anyone got any tips to get a journey straight to the inbox?

And whats better overall:

SMTP POP3 mail()?

LOL :P

That helps more than first post!

Emm, i think there are certain characters that get it sent to spam (correct me if i'm wrong), and it depends on how strict provider is.

I'd say pop3, that's on hotmail and thats perfect for me!

[Hypertext]

I don't know how to do enters, as filter html etc, so without using a complex form of <br>'s and \n I can't NL.

I'll switch to POP3 and try, thx :)

I think with PHP mailer, there's a header in the email that says basically sent by PHP. Most places block this as it's used for spam a lot. The best thing to do would be to write a script that sends by SMTP.
