I'm sending emails inviting contacts to login to setup an account on a customers website. I'm using SMTP from web methods in code behind... These emails have clickable links that make them get caught as spam.
Code:
<html><body>Please use this link <a href="http://xxx.yyy.zz.aa/asdfasdf.aspx?invite=' + CAST(@guid as varchar(100)) + '">Click Here</a> to create an account.</body></html>
How can I avoid this?
<asp:HyperLink id="HyperLink1" runat="server" Text="Email" NavigateUrl="mailto:example@mydomain.com" />
This is how I added an email link on my page, but does .net have any built in tool for preventing Robots from finding this address? What is a good way to present an email link that wont be detected by spam robots?
I am building an email feature in my website (jobs site). By using this functionality, recruiters will be able to send emails to candidates. I want an option so that the user can also set 'From Address' and the email should be ANTI-SPAM compliant.
View 2 RepliesI have created a community portal, in which user creates his/her account. After successfull registration a confirmation mail is send on registered email address.
I am using the following code to send the mail -
[Code]....
While testing we found that all the confirmation mails are going to SPAM folder instead of Inbox.
Is there anything wrong with the code or is there anything related to security.
We have a business web application that periodically sends emails as reminders, links to client data, etc. Our company uses Google Apps for our email provider (with our own domain name), and the web application sends email through Google with SMTP.
The problem is that Google Apps / Gmail keeps marking the messages as spam, even for the inboxes in our domain name. No other email provider seems to mark it as spam (but of course we haven't tested them all...).
We've tried various formulations of the body test: i.e. including more contextual information, addressing the recipient by name, but so far with no apparent changes. This makes me thing it may be something about our email sending process, rather than the content of the email, that's causing the emails to be marked as spam.
Things that we tried but that didn't solve the problem:
"From" address is valid and not spoofed SPF records are correct, and show as "pass" in the email header Since we are connecting to Google's SMTP server to send email, it's not an issue with a blacklisted IP address (however, our website has a static IP address that is not blacklisted). Email is not very spammy: I've checked against several online spam filter tests, and the email body always shows up as extremely unlikely to be filtered. HTML body vs plain-text body seems to make no difference. We send a small volume of email: probably 0-10 emails per day, so I don't see how that would make this suspicious. Whenever we have access to the receiving inbox (i.e. it belongs to an employee of our company), we've been marking the emails as "not spam", since Gmail may be using communal statistics to determine spam. After a couple times this results in emails to that particular inbox getting through, but doesn't seem to help other accounts.
What else can we try?
If it makes a difference, we're sending emails using an ASP.NET site running .NET 3.5. A typical email gets sent like this:
var message = new MailMessage(new MailAddress(from), new MailAddress(to)) {
Subject = subject,
Body = body
IsBodyHtml = true
};
// SMTP details stored in web.config
new SmtpClient { EnableSsl = true }.SendAsync(message, null);
EDIT: I've seen this similar question: How to stop Gmail from marking mails sent by my web app as spam?, but the situation is a little different since we can reproduce it by sending and receiving from the same Google Apps domain. Besides, I believe I have covered all of the proposed solutions for that question.
I am sending Email from SMTP server and all my Emails are landed in Junk in Hotmail ,Live and Yahoo. I am not using any Spam like content and following all the guildline to send Emails.
I check on mail to identify the Issues and found quite a few issues below
1) HELO Greeting Check
Description: Email Server HELO is . HELO greeting does not contain a valid domain. We would recommend to have a valid domain in HELO greeting. Ideally HELO greeting should be the same as Email server host name (in FQDN format).
2) BATV (Bounce Address Tag Validation) Check
Description: Email server is not using BATV format while sending out emails. BATV is recommended to ensure that your users do not become a victim of bounce floods.
3) DKIM (Domain Keys Identified Mail) Check
Description: Email does not contain any DKIM/Domain Keys Signature and the published Domain Keys policy rejects such unsigned emails. Therefore it is very likely that your emails are considered SPAM by Email servers verifying Domain keys. Signing your Outbound emails as per your Domain Keys policy will minimize chances of your Email being considered as SPAM.

View 1 RepliesI've been programming with VB for a little over 2 years, however have never had any formal education. So the extent of my education is as follows:
I want to know how to do a mouseover for an image on my webpage, I look online for someone who's done it in VB and I try and duplicate their code and then play with it until I get the results I want.
So as you can see there is a wealth of VB coding that simply escapes me because I just haven't desired to include it or needed to include different aspects of VB in my programs / web developments. What I want now is big enough that so far (one week of online searches) I've uncovered no site or forum that has given me a tutorial on how to go about implementing what I want into my Microsoft Web Development project. The old sources for information are only good for one or two aspects of a coding procedure, not an entire overhaul of my current .aspx files. Not to mention a bias towards hard coding in pure <html>, I get a lot of that when someone doesn't have the patients to address my question.
When I created my new project it automatically populated an Accounts folder with a Changepassword.aspx, Changepasswordsuccess.aspx, registration.aspx, and Login.aspx. I've successfully prevent the program from logging in the user after they register with a simple " ' " before an authentication line in the registration.vb code; however, the login.vb code and the login.design.vb code is simple beyond me, and I've yet to find a site that spells it out for me.
I've created an online test. However, the intent is to have the users only take the test once, thus after they register with their email address I want my site to send them an email with an account activation link. Once they click on this link by visiting their inbox they can then take the test.
I am trying to test emails using the local PickupDirectory. The code seems to work only in that an email is send to the local directory, but it appears like this: [URL] ....
Where it says 'Please click....here..', the 'here' should be a link.
This is the code I have:
Code:
Protected Sub SendPost_Click(ByVal sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles SendPost.Click
Dim SMTPMail As New System.Net.Mail.MailMessage()
Dim sbody As New StringBuilder()
sbody.Append("Please click <a href='http://usingasp.net/reset_pwd.aspx'>here</a> to reset your password")
[Code] ....
How can I rectify that?

I have a web service that takes an XML string for input and saves the XML to a file. The filename is created from the date and time and a random number generator. The program also edits the XML as it processes, and there can be errors. When there's an error, I create an email which describes the error and then repeats the XML in the body of the email. I am using another web service written in-house to send the email.
I want to include in the email a link to the filename I saved. What is the best way to do this? I think I need to use HTML, but there's an html flag I pass to the email web service which needs to be false. When it was true, the XML wasn't formatting.

I was curious how some of you are sending out an email to a new user, are you sending more then one email with username and link in one and then the password in another, are you sending everything in one email, are you sending an email to the new user at all?I'm curious because my web site is not a self registering web site, Only a supervisor can create a new user and then that user gets an email. I'm trying to figure out the best way to send the new user an email with their credentials to the site.the users are outside users (vendors) though their username is created by an internal employee
