    Thanks Debover!
    I’ll follow that thread instead… but it doesn’t look like its been fixed yet…

    I don’t know if this will work for you but I found a workaround that works for me. After a crazy amount of time trying to get the WP MAIL SMTP plugin and other similar plugins to work the way I needed, I ditched the SMTP completely. Using just the WPFORMS plugin, somehow I discovered that if I did the following things, emails from the contact form on my website get labeled in a way that works for me and also get delivered immediately in the Gmail inbox instead going to spam with no scary warnings.

    1. Through CPanel set up an email address such as “[email protected]”
    2. Also, through CPanel set up a forwarder from “[email protected]” to a Gmail address
    3. On the Notifications page in the WPFORMS plugin, set the “Send To Email Address” the same as the “From Address”. I did not use code; I just put in the email address: [email protected].

    I hope this works for you and anyone else struggling with this issue.
