[spam] in the mail subject

All the outgoing mail from my mojo site has a [spam] text in the subject, such as [SPAM]subscription confirmation etc.  Is the problem of my mail server setup?

That text is certainly not added by mojoPortal code so it must be an issue with the mail server or spam filters at the receiving end.

Hope it helps,

Joe

<add key="SMTPRequiresAuthentication" value="true" />

adding above key to the user.config solves the problem.

Re: [spam] in the mail subject

Hi,

Just to clarify, adding that key to your user.config solves the problem because your mail host is flagging the messages as SPAM if the smtp traffic isn't authenticated. This isn't an issue with mojoPortal but with the mail host and may not be the solution for similar issues for other users.

Thanks,
Joe D.
