    Update: New to mass emails in eTapestry as we were, I assumed that the 'via' I saw was as a result of an eTapestry process.  I can see now that it seems to be coming from me.  I'd be interested to see if anyone else has similar issues, but I might have to put this down to my own email providers. Apologies for jumping to conclusions!

    As marketeers, the last thing we want is suspicious looking email.  So the email service from eTapestry should be set up so that gmail, and other places, don't suspect suspicious behaviour when an email comes in from us.

    At the moment emails arrive with that fearful 'via' word included (see attached screenshot)

     

    Here's what google say about the 'via' appearance:

    ------------------------------------

    I'm a sender and I don't want my recipients to see the "via" link. What can I do?

    Gmail checks whether emails are correctly authenticated. If your messages are sent by a bulk mailing vendor or by third-party affiliates, please publish an SPF record that includes the IPs of the vendor or affiliates which send your messages and sign your messages with a DKIM signature that is associated with your domain.

    Sounds simple enough?
