AhmedElyamani Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Hello, I want my emails to look professional from their title , I don't want them to be detected as spam , or to look unprofessional in a way or another. So in short , I have a few options I can use to email sponsors: Yahoo mail , Gmail , and an email associated with my own domain. Which one of these would look more professional? And most importantly , have least or no chance of being detected as spam by any mail service ? Please share thoughts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatalfluff Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Mail from your own domain looks professional, but whether or not that will be prone to be flagged as spam depends entirely on the behaviour and abuse management of the provider you host your domain at. There are a lot of providers that don't care to keep their mailservers and subnets clean of spammers and as soon as they get onto the big warning lists you are basically done, even if you never abused anything yourself, ever.

Funkyy Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Use this - buy a domain, redirect mx to Outlook (loadz of tutorials around). From now on you will have free, unlimited email on your domain, but hosted by Outlook. Its the only worthy free service out there.Gmail for business is $5/mo.

I've already got my own domain , I will try what you suggested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AhmedElyamani Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 I just tried this. They are giving me an error about my domain name having inappropriate words or something. I really don't know how would their bots detect anything wrong in cueballgames.com , I can contact them for sollution , but I fear if I do so , I still can be sure that other spam detectors won't detect this like spam too for whatever the same reason they did that for , therefore , I think I will use just outlook.com. I have seen some developers here using it , anyone have some some notable experiences ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkyy Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Yeah, I am doing this. Hosting site on Tumblr and using Outlook for mail.What is your domain name? Maybe you have some curse word in different language by mistake in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daikrys Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 well i use a webspace+domain package and normally this also includes a email server you can use.just configure mozilla thunderbird then and you got a quite easy email solution personally i dont find anything strange in cueballgames.com, maybe its 'ball' but that would be crazy you can also go for outlook.com or similiar but dont ever use your professional email adress for something else then business!

AhmedElyamani Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 It would be crazy enough for Microsoft to design their tracking mechanism to have the word ball included In the inappropriate word list. Really awkward. I think I will go with an outlook account , just for business.thanks for the tips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
