You'll have to compare email that makes it through that *IS* HTML enhanced with your email, and compare all the headers and body and see what telltales triggered the spam filter. Spam filters these days are complex operations calculating the "odds" that any given piece of email is or isn't junk. If you can find out exactly what software / rules Yahoo uses to determine what is/isn't spam, then you could compose your email to not get caught -- But I doubt that Yahoo publishes this info. And it's subject to change without notice anyway. Your best bet is to get the recipients to whitelist your sending address so they always get your email. If you can't get them to do that, then they must not want your email all that badly, and you might as well give up on them. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
