I do not see any big problem but Spamassassin is giving three hints on how to make the email look better:
you get 2.5 points for having an image and only a few words. Remove the image or increase the text length
you get 1.1 points for your formatting. Your Email is not correct HTML (e.g., is missing the <html> tag
you get 1.2 points because you are ...

It sounds like Gmail is picking up the word 'Unsubscribe' from the opening line of your email newsletter, then displaying that in the message preview to the right of the subject line.
The text I've outlined in red is the message preview in Gmail:
Here's where Gmail pulls that from within the email itself:
As you can see, the opening text of the email ...

The answer is YES, unless you also copy all your current DNS records to the new DNS server too. You should do that before you move your name servers, although some control panels don't allow that until they are officially named as your name server. In that case, you make the changes ASAP although mail flow will be delayed while they propagate.
Why don't you ...

GMail has no IP or region restrictions. What you could do though is enable 2-step verification to add further protection?
This requires two steps in setting up, one at the domain level:
Go to your Google Apps administrator control panel.
Click the Advanced tools tab.
Under Authentication > 2-step verification, check Allow users to turn on 2-factor ...

You have at least two options to get around this:
Add the sender address, which you added to the Joomla! configuration, to the whitelist of your Gmail account.
Alternatively...
Re-configure Joomla! to use an SMTP account to send the mails instead of using the internal mail function.

There are three ways to acheive this with google apps (standard or enterprise)
Create a 'nickname' (otherwise known as a email alias). This will allow any email sent to info@example.com to appear in the inbox of me@example.com.
Create a group (otherwise known as a distribution list). This will allow email sent to info@example.com to appear in the inboxes ...

Apple worked closely with Google and other email providers to enable easy 'it just works' integration and setup on the iPhone. So, while GMail the iPhone uses IMAP it doesn't require the third party IMAP security setting to be enabled to function.
Blackberry haven't been involved with Google/GMail, so far as I can tell, but use the same protocol so setting ...

Assuming you have a Google Apps for Business account
You need to add a user account:
Goto this link
Login to 'Domain Management'
Or, if you're already logged in under your Apps account...
Goto:
https://www.google.com/a/cpanel/[your_site]/Dashboard
Under the 'Organizations and Users' menu you can add more accounts.
Note: I'm assuming that you ...

I sent an email from the standard web interface and then worked out it was the form. Looking in the code there were 2 lines causing errors
$headers .= "To: $nameto " . $newLine;
$headers .= "From: $namefrom " . $newLine;
As these were being added to the header they were being duplicated and gmail did not like it.

Actually Google Apps already lets you do this for free. The 10 email limit is a limit for the number of users. If you are only one user you can sign up using the free Apps account from here: http://www.google.com/enterprise/apps/business/pricing.html
Go into your Google Apps dashboard > Domain Settings > Domain Names.
From there you can add as many domain ...

If Google Apps is too expensive for you have you looked into Zoho email? Or RackSpace which is also affordable. If your websites have been compromised twice I would first secure your websites as best as possible then figure out a more efficient way to manage emails. One option is to purchase Outlook 2010 add all your pop accounts there which makes it very ...

If you are generating the email in php, remember to add return-path to your headers. Other details like clean code and light message are already in the thread.
Of course you are setting the from header, right?
Other tips are:
set reply-to
use \r\n as line ending with no spaces around
Have you tried to send the mail to different accounts? like ...

Make sure your SMTP server is not configured as an open relay (test)
It's possible that Gmail will flag an email as SPAM if it matches an email previously flagged as SPAM. So it's possible that if you're sending to the same Gmail account, your changes haven't made a difference if the original email from that sender was already flagged as SPAM (since it's ...

Google have been down-playing the free versions of some of their services a bit recently. You don't actually link to what you're looking at, but I've found that depending upon how exactly you reach the Apps information pages, it might be harder to find the free 10-user option. It's listed here.

Yes in Gmail you can click on your setting gears icon click the Accounts and Import tab, and you will see an option called under the Send mail as: section called Add another email address you own here you can add your own email address to use sending from gmail but as your@domain.com
zoho.com has free mail hosting for up to 3 accounts

As far I can understand your question, Gmail does not allow Mial Relay.
Use service like http://sendgrid.com or http://fastmail.fm
or better use GoDaddy's Mail server to send such mails. It is integrated with PHP on their server, and you have to use mail() function normally to send the mail.
MX records are required for incoming mails, not outgoing.

To whitelist individual email addresses:
Settings -> Filters -> Create a new filter.
Fill in the emailaddress in the "From" field, click Next, and select "Never send to spam". Instead of an entire emailaddress you could use a partial address too, like @yourcompany.com to whitelist all mail from that domain name.
You can also just pick a mail from the spam ...

I'd suggest a dedicated transactional email provider like SMTP.com, SendGrid, or Postmark. They provide the mailserver, sending API, and take steps to reduce the amount of mail that hits your users' spam folders for you by configuring things like DKIM, SPF records, and unique IP addresses.
When a site depends heavily on emails being delivered, it often pays ...

Mail server on your own box. That way you control it end to end. Make sure you have your email servers set up properly, don't put trigger words in the emails - like viagara - and have your users whitelist the email address.
Typically if you aren't sending spam, you shouldn't have a problem.
Google are notorious for not having much support when you need it.

If you're just testing the script, you could simply set up a PHP environment on your own computer using WAMP (Windows) or MAMP (Mac), then use your ISP's SMTP details or a Gmail account to send the email.
