PHPMailer

Alright so here is the deal...

I am coding a site that is going to require an email sent to the
user after they have completed their membership payment.

This email is going to give them their 'activation link' within it.

So I decided to try and plugin class.phpmailer.php

Im definitely having some troubles with it and need to address
them.

Ive been working on this for a couple of hours and it's only
getting me more and more frustrated because I can't seem
to get it to work right.

The problem I am having is the email is usually doing one
of two things:

1.) Being tagged as spam
2.) Being tagged as spam and being delayed

So in my call to use phpmailer I have this:

$mail = new PHPMailer();

$mail->IsMail();  // telling the class to use SMTP
$mail->Host     = "XXXX.com"; // SMTP server

$mail->From     = "accounts@XXXXX.com";
$mail->AddAddress("{$_SESSION['user_email']}");

$mail->Subject  = "[Activation Required] XXXX.com";
$mail->Body     = "Below you will find your link to activate your account.\n\n";
$mail->Body     .= "The are details of your account:\n";

$mail->Body     .= "-----------------------------------------\n";
$mail->Body     .= "Registration Name: " . $_SESSION['login'] . "\n";
$mail->Body     .= "Registration E-mail: " . $_SESSION['user_email'] . "\n";
$mail->Body     .= "-----------------------------------------\n\n";
$mail->Body     .= "Your activation link:\n";
$mail->Body     .= "----------------------------\n";



$mail->Body     .= "http://www.XXXX.com/activate.php?do=" . $maxid . "&y=" . $e_user;
$mail->Body     .= "\n";
$mail->Body     .= "-----------------------------------------------\n\n";
$mail->Body     .= "\nUser's IP Address: " . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

$mail->WordWrap = 110;

if(!$mail->Send()) {
  echo 'Message was not sent.';
  echo 'Mailer error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}
}
else {
echo 'something went wrong!';
}

PHP:

The results Im getting are something like this:

It's really driving me nuts and I just need this thing to drop into
an email box normally.

Can someone help me out with this or maybe even recommend
an easier class that i can get to mail() with that isn't throwing a 12.5
on the Spam Richter Scale?!!!

Pm responses are great cuz I keep my mail tab open and I will
be closing this tab. So I will see the new email for a pm response!

Thanks in advance and hopefully we can work this out. I may
be able to offer something up!

 

its not the script that sends it to the spam box, its the content and the server you are sending from...
