Use DKIM, domainkeys, a perfect emailer like pearmail or swiftmailer,
control the rate limit, use proper SPF, fill bulk mailer forms with all
major ISPs. Get FBL subscription from all ISP's except Gmail, and very
strictly remove them from your list.

Indeed. If one has to ask, one is not in the position to do this
