If it were me, I'd use something like PHPMailer with SMTP Authentication, which then the email comes from the "MailServer" rather than the "WebServer" if they are 2 separate machines. That COULD solve the issue there, but as Ash said, if it has "spammy" words in it, it wouldn't make any difference then. Try using the "-f" flag with the PHP mail(), and if that doesn't work, then try a 3rd party class such as PEAR::Mail, or PHPMailer.
