Check the headers on the message and take a look at 

 

Return Path:

From: 

are they the same domain names or different?

 

Also What does it say by 

Received-SPF

[tryingtolearn]

if you try using mail()

 

does it give the same result?

 

Here is a basic example from the manual.

(Just change the $to and header addresses  )

<?php
$to      = '[email protected]';
$subject = 'the subject';
$message = 'hello';
$headers = 'From: [email protected]' . "\r\n" .
    'Reply-To: [email protected]' . "\r\n" .
    'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>

did you try the example I posted in #3 above?

What was the result from that?

did it get delivered or sent to junk mail?

[Destramic]

ummm im not usinfg a mail function...im connection to my stmp server and sending it from there

[tryingtolearn]

Yes I can see that.

Lots of factors will play in your mail getting sent to a junk folder, most of which are out of your control.

Just wanted to see if you got the same result with a basic mail() setup.

You know - sort of like a place to start trying to track down a problem.

Maybe your server is blacklisted

Maybe your ip is blacklisted

Maybe its a dynamic ip address

Could be a problem with the DNS record

etc...

 

You can read about spf records in cpanel under email authentication.
