i've run into this. among many factors that can be involved, the sending
smtp server needs to be in address block that isn't black listed anywhere,
e.g. don't try sending from a comcast address.

also, you server needs to handle greylisting.

it may help to set an spf record.

in one instance i ended up using a well known mail hosting provider and
sending the mail to their smtp server with authenticated smtp over ssl,
which can be done quite easily with pear mail. i.e. pay the hosting company
to worry about getting the emails through.
