Hi,

I am writing a program that sends emails to my hotmail account from my
account at work I'm using the standard .NET SMTP class and using my email
address in the from (not spoofing). IIS is relaying the mail to our internal
exchange server, however when this mail arrives in hotmail it automtically
goes to the junk folder. If I try sending the same email from my outlook
account it goes into the inbox. Why does this happen and is there anyway
around it?
 
John,

I am not an expert in this. Still I suggest something. Check the HTTP
headers of both the mails(those sent using Outlook and ur SMTP program).
There must be some header that helps Hotmail to distinguesh junk mails and
normal mails. you can use the same header in your SMTP program too.

You can enable display of HTTP headers in hotmail. Go to Options-->Mail(from
left side menu bar)-->mail display setting-->Message Headers and select
required option.
