    After 5 years running smoothly, my forwarding email address via wordpress is giving my colleagues bouncebacks. It is inconsistent, and the email content is not spammy, it’s regular direct correspondence. Please help resolve this!

    this is the error message received by a colleague trying to email me, who uses outlook:

    Error Details
    Error: 550 5.7.350 Remote server returned message detected as spam -> 554 5.7.1 Spam message rejected
    Message rejected by: smtp1-fwd.dfw.wordpress.com

    Same here!!!

    Is there any solution given?

    Try these instructions:

    https://wpmailsmtp.com/how-to-create-dmarc-record

    It amounts to adding a new DNS record. In my case, (presumably yours), DNS was managed at wordpress. Wasn’t easy to find (for me) but go to:
    https://wordpress.com/sites
    Find your domain and select Domains and DNS from the “…” menu

    Then generally follow the instructions in the above link.

    Sidenote: pretty lame that this happens and we’re all left to fend for ourselves for a paid service. I guess you can’t beat the price. . .. and you get what you pay for.

    Good luck.

    Hi there!

    We’re seeing a slight uptick in email forwarding ending up with Spam rejected messages, just like the ones you ran into recently. In other words, this is not just happening to you, as other customers who use email forwards are also running into this issue.
     
    While we don’t have everything sorted out yet, our developers are investigating this actively now, and we hope to get to the bottom of it as soon as possible.  
     
    Thanks again for keeping us updated, and we’ll reach back out again soon!
