WordPress sends mails mark as phishing. How to stop it?

Deactivate all plugins and see if automatic emails are still being sent? If no activate plugins one by one until you locate the problematic one.

Krishna, this is not the plug-in issue. I mean, I like to receive these notifications via email. The problem is 80% mails are marked as phishing.

All of these mails, use my email address as the sender.

What is showing them as phishing? Your email client? Or?

Some of the installed plug-in automatically sends me an email notification.

I quote this from your opening post. And it is quite possible. The real issue is emails are marked as phishing. Who does that. As you suspected, it can be by a plugin, your theme, or the next possibility is that your site is compromised.

Now how will you find out?

For that we have to do the basic steps such as deactivating plugins, reverting, to the default theme, reinstalling WordPress, etc. If nothing resolves, it means that a script or something installed in your database is the culprit. I hope you understand.

@wpyogi,

Gmail. I don’t use any email client.

@krishna,
I think, I think you still haven’t got it correctly.

In my situation, I use “WP-DBManager”. I configure this plug-in to automatically email the daily, database backup to my personal email address. Gmail, mark all the database backup mails (WP-DBManager plug-in sent) as mark phishing. That is the issue.

Yes, that’s what I was trying to find out. I never could believe that Gmail is marking the mails from plugins as phishing.

That otherwise means that you know the answer to your question too. That is stop using the plugins that Gmail considers as sending out phishing emails OR stop using Gmail.

BTW, have you taken up the matter with Gmail?

@bluemad

See if anything here seems like a reasonable solution.

Is it not possible (or based on such from Google, likely) this domain is actually also sending out phishing emails (not these, but others)?

@seacoast Web Design.
I don’t use any email campaign or any black hat methods. My site only sending mails to my personal email account. My new posts email notifications are sent Feedbuner.

I installed WP-Mail-SMTP, plug-in. There’s no issue, mails that are sending though this plug-in. But some plug-in, such as WP-DBManager, not use that plug-in to send database backup mails to my personal mail account. In that situation, I face this phishing issue.

@claytonjames
Thank you ClaytonJames,your information. I think i have to make a filter.

I meant “in a manner malicious not just to you, but your email server host”…that is, my post was not punitive on yourself, but others… consult your host!

@bluemad

Hope that works for you.. Good luck!

@seacoast Web Design,

Oh I got your point. But I use Knownhost VPS, only one blog hosted on my account. I use Google apps mail service. I don’t use Cpanel or any other email service. I think these things are not doing any suspicious activities.

@claytonjames,

Yes, just added. ?? I’m curious what’s going in here.
