Hi all,
I tried searching the archives for a solution to my problem but couldn't
find anything. My apologies if this has been answered 100 times before.
I bought a new domain through hostgator.com and they have Mailman installed
so I can set up a mailing list. I've used mailman before through my
University and never had a problem with requests being filtered as spam.
Basically, when I try to add an e-mail account to the mailing list, it goes
into my Gmail spam box. I don't know why this would happen, as my domain
has never been used for anything before, so no one could have possibly
reported it as spam. The header is as follows:
from: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
date: Wed, Jun 25, 2008 at 2:16 PM
subject: Welcome to the "Artists" mailing list
mailing list: <artists_domain.com.>
mailed-by: domain.com
Where domain.com is my domain, artists is the name of the list, and
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is the person I add to the list.
I have tried altering the content of the message, but nothing seems to work,
which leads me to believe it is being flagged as spam based on where it
originates from. But seeing as the website has no content on it (just a
line of text that says "Things will be here shortly") i dont know why gmail
would have a preconceived notion that it's a spamming site.
Any ideas?

It is quite possible that the ISP you are using has hosted domains
that were a problem and gmail is filtering on the fact that your
domain is hosted in their IP address block.
It is also quite possible that they are being quite draconian about
the content of the message.
Either way, the only way you will know for certain what is happening
is if you contact their technical support (if you can actually get an
answer out of them, they may well ignore your request too).
