Doomed email domain because of newsletters?

I use our corporate email domains for newsletter deliveries.

Of course, the newsletters are clean and should not be considered spam. However, it may be that recipients rather click on the "Spam" button in their email program rather than using the "Unsubscribe Here" we put into any newsletter.

Now, I realize that many of our normal emails using the same domain names are put in the Outlook spam bin by default.

Does this happen because of our newsletter activities? Is there any way to check whether we have been blacklisted by email poviders?

Posting editing seems to be corrupt: "Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d'. Type mismatch: 'rs' /forum/post.asp, line 642 "

Anyway, just wanted to mention that the "TOTAL SPAM SCORE for your e-mail was 0." when testing at http://spamcheck.sitesell.com

So, the contents is absolutely clean. I send individual emails via my 1&1 ISP.

Hi Knubbi

If the IP address of your mail server has been put on a blacklist then it is likely to affect all mail you send from that server to addresses that use that blacklist. However usually such blacklistings are temporary and is automatically cleared after a period.

You can use a tool like the following to check whether your server is blacklisted:

Hi Nigel,

thanks, I tried that tool and everything seems to be clean.

The "funny" thing is that my emails go into my Outlook spam bin if I send an email to myself. Do you know which kind of Junk mail filter black list Microsoft is using for Outlook?
