Your email is going to the bulk mail folder because the email provider believes that it's spam. It's nothing specifically wrong with your email, there is no "this isn't spam" flag, otherwise everyone would set it. To figure out why the email is being marked as spam, check the program that is doing the filtering. Most of the filtering programs will list the tests which matched in the headers. You can then try and fix the problems highlighted. A few suggestions from what you provided below, I believe your From header is incorrect. You could try not sending HTML in the message or sending properly formed and MIME typed HTML, along with a non-HTML version.
