You cannot control this through your code.

Spam filter settings are setup on the client and you simply have no control over it.

Hi,

Unfortunately I have to disagree in some points with Abhinav :)
It is true that you cannot control the spamfilter itself, but you can control the sent email, that the spam filter does not detect the mail as spam.

There are several points you have to look at (only written a few, there are many checks a spam-filter is executing):

- Emails which are sent from a mail-server domain which is not the same as the sender email domain will mostly treated as spam
- Emails where the sender adress does not exist (worse: the sender domain does not exist) are treated as spam
- Emails with too less text (and worse: with too less text and a hyperlink) will be treated as spam

I always had problems with sending emails on behalf of a user. That's not a good practice, you should better use the reply-to address property.
Also adding some more text to the email helps.

Hope this helps :)

Best regards and happy coding,
Chris
