mail() junkmail

[jackvull]

I'm using the mail() function in PHP but the emails are appearing in the junk mail in Hotmail accounts. Is there something I can do to stop this?

It has got something to do with the headers, I believe. Google it.

There is a very similar thread here [webmasterworld.com]

I'll look up the header issue.
Is it possible that shared servers could be causing an issue, i.e. domain ip lookups are not working?

[barns101]

Quite possibly. Also some ISPs (e.g. AOL) will not accept email if there is no reverse DNS lookup available (i.e. almost any shared server!).
