Greetings I
know my question has been answered here before but I am not
smart enough to
implement the solution successfully. We are on a shared
commercial
server webhost which allows me direct access to SmartList code
but not direct
access to sendmail etc.
My subscribers complain they aren't getting our
(opt-in) newsletter. I have
told them to put our domain on their ISP
whitelists which some claim to have
done. I know we get filtered by
Yahoo Mail to the bulk mail filters. AOL
seems to trash us
directly. We are not on blacklists so presumably most is
due to
headers.
The recipient sees in his/her Outlook
Express:
From: "Larc Webmaster" <webmaster@OURDOMAIN.org>
To: newsletter@OURDOMAIN.org
Reply-To: webmaster@OURDOMAIN.org
I guess I am stuck with that "to" line using SmartList (that is,
no
individual recipient addressing), which certainly results in some
deletions
as spam.
In the hidden headers (the shared server is
globalnameservers.com, where we
are user-id
larc):
X-Authentication-Warning:
host10.globalnameservers.com: larc set sender
to newsletter-request@OURDOMAIN.org using -f
I have added the recommended code to remove X headers to
my rc.local.s20 but
this still appears (presumably added by sendmail which I
cannot access).
The other additions to rc.local.s20 work fine (referencing my
custom
footer.txt). Could this be leading to spam
deletions?
Similarly:
Return-Path:
<newsletter-request@OURDOMAIN.org>
Can I or should I be concerned about
this? I do not want to screw up my
Smartlist.
Thanks for any
assistance. Smartlist is very handy but if our susbcribers
don't get
the messages it is futile.
