Suggestions & Concerns / How to prevent most site registration emails from going to spam
« on: September 09, 2017, 05:40:01 AM »
To whom it may concern:
New user here. I see that in your registration process you mention to check your spam folder for the confirmation email in case it lands there. As a gmail user (gmail does very well with email security practices), it went straight to spam. As a person with a relatively extensive email security background, it was immediately clear why. I can give you very simple instructions to dramatically improve your inbox placement without needing to spend a dime on software. If any admins here are interested, I'm happy to help, free of charge of course.
Edit: after reading over my original post, it sounds kinda shady... for transparency my advice would be about how to implement authentication mechanisms such as SPF/DKIM and things like making sure your sending domains align for DMARC checks. All easily googled stuff but I assume this site has had this problem for a while since they are not properly in place, so just offering some help pro-bono.
