Unhappy email keeps going to junk mail in hotmail/gmail


Hello Everyone,

Recently i got a dedicated server (running CentOS), and im trying to send emails using a php to hotmail, gmail, yahoo, etc..
But the emails keep going to junk email,

this are the headers i get in gmail, i changed my domain name to "mysite.net", and my ip to 99.99.99.99

-------------------------------------------------------
Delivered-To: myemail@gmail.com

Sun, 02 Sep 2007 01:16:42 -0700 (PDT)

Received-SPF: neutral (google.com: 99.99.99.99 is neither permitted nor denied by best guess record for domain of staff@mysite.net
) client-ip=99.99.99.99;
Authentication-Results: mx.google.com; spf=neutral (google.com:
99.99.99.99 is neither permitted nor denied by best guess record for domain of staff@mysite.net) smtp.mail=staff@mysite.net
Received: from
mysite.net (mysite.net [127.0.0.1])
by mysite.net (8.13.8/8.13.8) with ESMTP id l828Gj3h013152

-------------------------------------------------------

whats wrong here? i tried everything, im guessing "mysite.net (mysite.net [127.0.0.1])" is one of the reasons, but how can i change it so it shows my ip address instead of "127.0.0.1"? what is SPF anyway?

i have googled this a lot, seen many people with the same problem, yet no solutions, you help would really really really reallllyy be much appreciated

Hi,

Problem is not in your mail server. Just check out with gmail support because they are creating this type of problem so many time.

Tell them I am getting my servers mail in junk folder of gmail account because gmail people might using filtering so your domain get blocked and going into the junk folder.

Find the support link for gmail, yahoo and all those you are facing issues.

If suppose they block IP then you can change the IP of your mail server and check but if they block your domain name then you must have to email/call/support them.

don;t worry they are providing free support.

Best Regards,
Ramesh Shihora
