It greatly depends on your DNS set up and the mail headers you are sending. Here's some things you should consider checking....
1. Is your host name a proper name & does it resolve? 2. Do you have rDNS set up? 3. Has your server (or IP) ever been labeled as a spam box 4. Are you on any blacklists 5. Are you sending all proper headers such as from, to, subject, body, return-path, etc? 6. Does your "From" & "Return-Path" headers match? If not, 95% of the time your emails will be marked as spam. 6. Do you have DKIM/Domain Keys or SPF set up? and last but not least, avoid using the default PHP "mail" function. It's better to use the pear mailer script.
