Avoiding being classed as spam

Hi there,

We are a non-profit organsation testing G-Lock email processor to send out our e-newsletter to 5000+ (and growing) supporters. Yet, each time we send emails out to Yahoo, Hotmail and some other email accounts, we are being classed as spam - either at source by the ISP/email provider or by recipients who are filtering us automatically into to Bulk/Spam folders.

Does anyone using G-Lock (or indeed any other email processing software) know a way around this?

Thanks.

Ways I've heard are to send in plain-text only, keep the message size small, and send in batches instead of all at once.

In all likelihood, the problem is not G-Lock, but the aggressive spam filters used by many ISPs.

Read up on what triggers spam filters. Use your own account and try some different options. But be forewarned - delivery of legitimate bulk mail is getting harder every day.
