XF 2.1 New Forum - My Verification emails are not being sent

[patrick jane]

My Verification emails are not being sent, hosted by Bluehost. The email I used to purchase and start the forum is the same email I used to purchase hosting. Bluhost said they are NOT hosting the email address.

I think I need to change something here with XF and I created a new email address with the host. How do I change the email here for my forum to send the verifications?

Well, I just found out the emails are going to Spam. I don't know what to do about that but at least we know the emails are being sent from my forum. I thought my team checked Spam because I always check there and I check All Mail as well.

I apologize for that mistake of not assuring that they checked Spam. So, what can I do to get the emails to NOT go to Spam?

Have you set SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and PTR (Reverse Pointer) records for email on your server?

Actually. the link posted by @duderuud will tell you about DKIM and SPF but you still need to to check DMARC and PTR.

Take a look at my thread here: https://xenforo.com/community/threa...m-with-google-and-other-mail-services.195453/

Biggest problem, at least for me is a new domain, so Google places mail to spam, just to be "secure". For no other reason, even if I did set everything as it should be.
