People have been contacting me by using the Contact form on my website. All of the emails generated by the contact form have gone into my junk folder. How do I fix that? The email address I use on the website is a gmail address. I have used a gmail address for my personal email and never had a problem with my emails going into peoples’ junk folders.
Mail Clients will send email to junk based on the mail server/senders address sending the mail not the address it’s going to.
Have you tried changing the "from email address to something else. Maybe one from the site’s domain. I would never use a gmail address in a contact form. It’s best to setup email on the domain. Most hosting companies offer free email addresses and can forward the email to what address you want.
I used to use an email address through my domain but anytime someone emailed me using that email it always went to junk. I tried 2 different hosting companies and had the same problem even though they insisted that there were no filters on my account. That’s why I switched to a gmail account.
