I accidentally sent a previous reply to the wrong address, which resulted in a thread getting copied to -discuss mid-thread. Sorr for the confusion. But, since we're here:

I've found that messages sent from non-Google systems, using a non-Google address, to a GNHLUG address, on the GNHLUG server (not hosted with Google), which are then relayed to a @gmail.com address, are getting tagged with a "Spam" label in Gmail. The originating domains do *not* have SPF records. So it's not that we're claiming to be Google. Not just that, anyway. My guess for most likely possibility is our new host gave us an IP address that had previously been a source of abuse. That is a common problem with the near-instant-provisioning available these days. That would explain why everything was fine until we changed servers. Possibly contributing is the fact that we are relaying mail for a domain not us. (That is, mail comes from @example.com, goes through a server at gnhlug.org, and is then given to @gmail.com.) Google has no way of knowing the mail we are claiming is from example.com is legit. I don't think it's just the latter, as things have been fine this way for years. But it's possible the relaying is contributing to a spam score, and the IP address change also increased that score, and in total, we've crossed a threshold. -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
