    my mailing list coming up as SPAM

    i'm hosted with bluegravity.com and have been very pleased over the last 2-3 years.

    they've recently implemented spamasssassin and clamAV to filter at the mail server level. i'm was more than pleased to hear this news.

    the good news is NO, repeat NO more viruses/worms being sent to my inbox. (e.g "re:your document"). also, a GREATLY reduced number of spam messages.

    however, now when i send out to my mailing list (and i'm on it) it gets flagged with a "[spam]" prefix and the image that i embedd in the HTML does not come up.

    i have an OPT-IN mailing list that people can be legitimately removed by clicking a simple link (which is at the bottom of EACH message)

    if i'm signed up to be on an adult mailing list, shouldn't i be able to view the images? these just seems fuct to me.

    any thoughts?

    sounds like some of your text or html is being flagged by spam assasian - check the headers.

        It's simply because spam filters dont care if people opted-in and gave a DNA sample to prove they WANT the mailings.

        Some filters should be sued/banned because they dont even try to verify jack shit, they just label you and you're boned regardless of your legitimacy and compliance with all laws.

        Good luck.

        You've read it, you can't unread it.
