Hi All, I am having a functionality of sending emails in my rails application. Sending the emails is working properly but sometimes the email goes to Inbox folder and sometime it goes to Spam folder. I am sending one email at a time, there is no bulk/mass emails. Does anyone have any idea regarding how to send email to Inbox?? Any help appreciated. Thanks Saurabh ---

Whether it goes to the inbox or the spam folder is up to the email receiving application. If it thinks it is spam then there is nothing you can do about it other than change your email to make it less spammy. I assume that you have made sure you are putting sensible data in all the headers. Colin ---
