Everything I have tried failed. I cannot send from my vps to hotmail inbox folder.
SPF and DKIM are set and working
www.mail-tester.com / web-NFXHGo 10/10
You can see email full headers here http://pastebin.com/CSnFrn6L
Gmail, yahoo, yandex, godaddy and other major email providers accept my emails at inbox
I am on JMRP and SNDS
I have tried many types of content. Plaint text, html, valid content emails
I got that IP a few days ago. It was blacklisted my hotmail.
I asked them to remove the ban but the junk remained which is almost the same to me.
I do not want to use another service like mailchimp or smtp servers.
I do not want to "train" for months hotmail to see that my mails are not spam and loose $$$ in the process.
I have used twice this form support.live.com / eform.aspx?productKey=edfsmsbl3&ct=eformts
but I am pretty sure that the answers are given by a bot
What can i Do more to get to the inbox of my clients?
If I get a new IP am I going to fall on the same dread road?

I had outlook mail server configured with my server and all system generated emails(transactional) were getting received in my Outlook inbox which was installed on my server.
I wanted to move into Gmail. So, I mapped my domain with gmail (G suite) changed my SMTP credentials, outbound email password, etc in postfix, then MX records were also changed.
Outbound emails from my system/server are going to other addresses perfectly. but copies of them are not coming to my Gmail inbox, rather they are going to the outbox inbox.
I didn't stop/uninstalled Outlook as I noticed this problem. Normal emails which are coming from separate platforms are landing in my gmail, but most of my system generated transactional email copies are going to my outlook inbox.
I am using centos, Postfix and I want my system generated emails to land in my Gmail which now mapped with my domain.
**I also contacted Google support, they told it is problem with my email configuration/routing in server.
Please help. Thanks in advance.
I solved the problem just by gaining courage and deleting the outlook account. Now all emails are receiving in the Gmail smoothly.
I'm using my own email server to send and receive my emails. Therefor I've set up a VPS at Tilaa.com which also acts as my webserver.
On the webserver I have DirectAdmin setup which takes care of my administrative things.
The problem is that I can receive and send emails but Outlook, Live and Hotmail refuse the receive any emails coming from my email server. Gmail does work f.e. ( Not even in junk folders )
When the receiver at Outlook/live or hotmail adds my email address to the safe list, emails do get through.
My domain is virtualfarmingworld.com
What I have done?
- Setup SPF record
- Setup DKIM record
- Setup A record mail.virtualfarmingworld.com to server IP 84.22.113.42

Does anyone have any ideas?

Ciryk,
Hotmail can be a bit tricky, if it's being blocked completely. Then most likely your IP is on their internal blacklist. If it's showing up in their SPAM folder it can be a number of reason. The headers from the email in Hotmail will tell you why it's in the SPAM folder.
Look for SRV:<value> PCL: <Value> and SCL: <Value>
PCL stands for Phising Confidence Level and SCL stands for Spam Confidence Level.
You should run your email through this Mail Tester, it really does point out a lot of issues. It may or may not solve the hotmail issue, but they have this inbox tester their that really awesome that will show you other places you're having issues mailing to. Keep in mind, the previous owner of the IP might of spammed from it and caused issues.
I also notice by helping a lot of people that after signing up to Microsoft Junk Mail Reporting System, wait a few days and then delivery results are better with hotmail. I did a scan on you IP and I think you did that already signed up?
You're also on this blacklist: http://www.dnsblchile.org/
Which is really easy to get off, normally takes a couple of hours after you filled out the form.
I spent weeks on researching the net on wich solution should I use in order to correctly send emails from my websites hosted on shared hosting accounts, but the more I read - the more confused I get.
So this is my situation!
I have among others, an ecommerce website built on OpenCart, on a shared hosting account and a few email addresses in cPanel, like sales#mydomain.com, newsletter#mydomain.com, contact#mydomain.com, etc. These email accounts are also accessible via roundCube by the user at email.mydomain.com and via IMAP\SMTP on their email clients like Thunderbird.
The website has these email addresses set up and it uses (at leas Opencart does) php mail() to send emails for events (new order, contact, quote, etc).
Since last year or so, providers like Yahoo keeps banning the server's IP address and emails get bounced back with failure messages, Gmail recipients get them in Spam folder, etc. I almost monthly ask my hosting provider to change IP address, ask Yahoo or spam services to unblock the IP address, do tests, etc and I don't even have a large number of emails going, like 100 per month, most of them are Ask for a quote wich are plain text messages.
In other words, it isn't working.
What I am looking for what solution should I use to send emails from websites hosted on shared accounts, that is transactional emails and newsletter emails without upsetting Yahoo,Google,etc. subdomains? external smtp service? configure email accounts in a specific way? What do you guys use ?
If you are able to add extensions to Opencart on your shared host, you may want to consider adding the phpmailer extension (http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=extension/extension/info&extension_id=3932). This will enable you to send all outgoing mail from Opencart via phpmailer, which can be setup to send mail through a remote SMTP relay (such as smtp.gmail.com, sendgrid, or some other remote SMTP relay). A reputable remote SMTP relay will probably be less likely to be blacklisted than your host's SMTP relay that the php mail() command is currently using.
I am trying to send an email using an Indy Email Client. The body of the email is pretty much a list of various websites (like 50 to 100). The email server is Yahoo. I am finding the email is not going through (I get a "Connection Closed Gracefully" exception). But if I change all instances of "/" to different letters the email goes through. Example:
Change http://mysite.com/mypage.html to http:XXmysite.comXmypage.html
Could the email server be rejecting the email because it looks like spam?
Turns out Goadddy was denying them because links contained in the email were noted as spam sites.
I have sent out 5 different edm with different content to a group of people. 4 of them could reach the mailbox of yahoo, gmail and hotmail successfully.
The problem is that the remaining 1 being flagged as SPAM by hotmail. (It can reach the mailbox of yahoo and gmail successfully)
Does anyone know why?
This can be down to a number things.
If you sent the emails out quite quickly then the receiving email server may just flag it as spam.
The other thing that it could be is that you are using a phrase that the hotmail spam filter is picking up on. I suggest running your email through something like spamassassin to see what it would score.
If its still got a good score then maybe you need to be affiliated with the hotmail feedback loop so that they can let you know when someone hits "This is spam" button.
IF that doesnt work then you may need to see if your IP address has been blocked by hotmail. If you want to do email direct marketing, the IP address normally has to be whitelisted by the email provider and potentially spamhaus so they know you aren't a spammer.
