    Resolved [RESOLVED] send email to bulk mail :(

    Hello, I have a php registration form, upon the user registered, the email is send out to him/her. But the email from mysite is always going to the bulkmail on yahoo, or even worse to spam in hotmail. Is there a way to resolve this?

    My From header is "From: [email protected]"

    A lot of mail providers these days are picky about what they accept. I forget what headers you need to provide exactly, but I think just adding Reply-To might fix it.

    some mail providers don't accept mail unless you have a proper reverse DNS set up, too. if you're getting your website hosted from a company, they have probably done this already. if you're hosting it yourself, you'll have to do it. I don't think this is the right place to ask about that, though.

    check out php.net's documentation of the mail function for help with headers. it shows you how to mail the mailing client set as php, and how to use the reply-to header.
