Out Of Stock Mail Alert - Spam

[tdr170]

So here is the issue we just moved our site to A2 hosting and now the Out Of Stock emails are being blocked due to spam content.

After several phone calls to both A2 and Centurylink no solution was found as they both said the issue is not here.

 

So now its time to test the mail and see what the issue is, first I removed all the Head info, same issue, then I removed all clickable links, same issue.

So now I figure it's in the body of the message so I started to remove lines that may have an issue, I removed this line

 

The remaining stock is now less than the specified minimum of <strong><span style="color:#333">{last_qty}.</span></strong><br /><br /> 

 

and now the mail comes through without issue, so for some reason A2 hostings Barracuda spam filter does not like the {last_qty} as it must resemble some spam fileter they have set up.

 

So I thought I would share this with the community in case others have this issue.
