    We currently have the same issue. We have (1) email that always goes to spam, it shows up in the inbox then disappears to the spam folder. I have followed the steps to create a filter but it still goes to spam. Is there a fix available?

    This guide will help you to avoid your emails bouncing or going to the spam or junk folders: http://www.jotform.com/help/208-How-to-setup-email-alerts-to-prevent-email-bouncing-related-issues

    If this still persists, I think that you would need to ask your email provider to white-list our IP addresses, you will find them on this link: http://www.jotform.com/help/145-Whitelisting-JotMails-IP-Addresses.

    Please give it a try and let us know how it goes.

    Can you please try to add noreply@jotform.com and noreply@formresponse.com to your contacts list?

    Did you follow the guide from the previous ticket about how to setup Gmail to never send a specific email address to the Spam folder?

    Let us know, how it goes. We will wait for your response.

    The info provided was not for Gmail. I have created never go to spam filter on the email address in question, but it still continues to go to the spam folder.
