style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is anyone else having an issue with email from your domain
getting tagged as “SPAM” in Gmail and Yahoo mail? This just started a few weeks
ago for us. @mtw.org messages are going into the Gmail Spam folder for any new
people we connect with and send email to.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>For instance, a person gives us their email address and
wants us to communicate with them. We add them to our contact list and then
send something to them. We don’t hear back from them and so someone calls. Come
to find out, our message to their gmail account went into their gmail spam
folder.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This is not happening for people with whom we’ve been
corresponding for some time – only seems to be new gmail accounts. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Of course, Gmail customer service is awesome (if you can
find them) – I’m being facetious here – they don’t write back. So, have been
digging around the web trying to find an answer. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone have any
thoughts on what might be happening. We’ve seen this with Gmail and Yahoo email
– both of whom are using Postini I believe – and only in the past couple
months. I’ve checked our status on the spam blocking services and MTW is NOT
blacklisted on any of these that I can tell or see.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Any thoughts?<o:p></o:p></p>
