My emails arrive as spam

[RaulGG]

Hi all,

I have a problem with sending emails from my server managed by plesk, is that hotmail and gmail sometimes classifies me as spam. As I have investigated, the problem is that SPF detected, but after searching the internet and still do what you suggest without being able to fix me.

Thanks and regards

SPF helps stop SPAM to your server and NOT the reverse ..

However, if HotMail + Gmail are identifying your server as a spammer then most likely this is true ...
Start by monitoring your queue, monitor the mail log, chances are you have PHP scripts being used to send out SPAM.

I would highly suggest disabling the php mail function!!

Thanks for your answer,

I am fairly new to plesk, so I need you indieques better or where I can find a manual.

How I can disable shipping option for php. Now I have enabled the option of Postfix, and as sending POP3 before SMTP.

If I check spamhaus lists, see my ip is not listed as spam, so much wonder what is happening to me.

On my server I have installed a social network, and runs CentOS with plesk parallels.

I sent an email to my hotmail to report the error, and I suggest that do not meet the requirements to retire as spam hotmail.

Regards,

How I can disable shipping option for php

I think you meant the php mail function ..To disable that, login to your SHELL and edit the file

touch /var/log/formmail.log
vim /etc/php.ini

and set

disable_functions = mail
mail.log = /var/log/formmail.log

Then finely

/etc/init.d/httpd restart

That will stop SPAM out of your server by over 80% (Especially if you have CMS apps like Joomla, Wordpress on your server)

Take note that /var/log/formmail.log helps log ALL php mail requests if you ever choose to enable it again...

Hello,

failure of SPF tell me is this.

You do not have a SPF record for the domain cursat.com., Meaning That you are not using the protection Given From this kind of technology. This is only a warning, but in Implementing Please consider it!

I'm going crazy with this issue! I do not understand why the emails sent to the spam folder: (

Dear RaulGG,

you can create your own SPF record on spf-record.de or any other site which provides this.
After you created it, you have to (let do) apply your record as TXT record on your DNS servers in the zone of cursat.com.

Afterwards, it will take up to 24hrs until all servers recognized it.

Then you should after it.
