Every mail sent with the PHP Mail() is getting sent straight to spam (all providers e.g. gmail, yahoo, hotmail)
My IP is not blacklisted.
Here is an example of an email header that got sent to spam:

Hi, this is the Configure SMTP plugin e-mailing you a test message from your WordPress blog.
This message was sent with this time-stamp: 2011-12-26 19:43:08
Only think I can see is it says that the DomainKey-status says bad format.
What is the domain key? and would it send emails to spam?
Can anyone tell why these emails are being sent to spam?
Even the basic Contact Form 7 Wordpress plugin is sending emails straight to spam.
