Hey,

I've been having a problem getting emails being sent from my application to NOT land in gmail/yahoo/hotmails junk/spam folders. These emails are permission based emails such as registration confirmation and status notifications. I don't send any emails unless the user has taken an action that requires email validation.

I've gone over most of the basics:

*MX record is an A NAME
*Valid SPF record is set up
*Reverse DNS Lookup resolves to proper A Name (which is specified in the SPF record)
*DomainKey Set up
*Not listed on any black lists
*SpamAssassin tests of emails returns a score of 0

Curious if anyone has any other recommendations or maybe knows of a service/consultant who will get my emails through.

I was using a service called emailreach.com for a while, but it's really just a testing tool. They do not provide any recommendations to resolve issues.

Thanks in advance!

t.
