PHPmailer sending mail to spam in hotmail. how to fix?

But i have tried it recently and still, it goes to Junk for hotmail. Perhaps there might be new required headers to send mail through SMTP Authentication. I have used the same code as of what the article above used. Thanks in advance

  • Hotmail's the worse for this. Even after marking legitimate messages as "not spam", they're still sent to spam. This, containing perfectly valid headers. – Funk Forty Niner Jun 26 '14 at 13:50
  • Other websites though that sends automated e-mails were able to send it in my inbox. That keeps my hope of a way to make this possible with the PHPMailer Script. – CudoX Jun 26 '14 at 13:52
  • I suggest you look at what they're using for their headers. – Funk Forty Niner Jun 26 '14 at 13:54

Who is hosting this application? I had the same issue for one of my clients on Godaddy and found out even if I have authenticated SMTP, I can't still send emails or when it does send it goes to spam.

Just make sure require ports are open.

  • So the required port for SMTP server is 25, which is open. Are there else in which it should be open? what are the ports and what do they serve as for the sending of e-mail with SMTP? – CudoX Jun 26 '14 at 13:58
  • 25 is fine but check if hosting provider is allowing you to send emails & authenticate via their server – Roozbeh J Jun 26 '14 at 14:09
  • So did you resolve this? – Roozbeh J Jun 26 '14 at 14:47
