Registered users have received an email upon registration, containing a link to the page where they can edit their entry. If that link got lost, a new one can be requested via the "Forgot your password?" function (see http://www.tvdr.de/cgi-bin/vdr-counter.pl?action=forgot).

Any options if the mail address used for registration a decade ago is not available anymore? ;-)

You can send me the old email address via private email (vdr@tvdr.de) and I'll send you a new password. You can then change the email address in the counter yourself.

I would appreciate if many VDR users update their counter entries, or newly register their VDRs.

As a word of warning, it appears that gmail marks the autoresponse messages as spam!

I eventually thought to look in my spam folder so I could register properly!

Thanks. That's why I added "Please also check your SPAM folder, because sometimes automated emails are wrongfully considered SPAM by some filters" to the message that appears right after the verification mail has been sent.

Any ideas how Gmail determines that this is an autoresponse message?

Hi,

OT:

https://support.google.com/mail/answer/81126?hl=en

To ensure that Gmail can identify you:

Use a consistent IP address to send bulk mail. Keep valid reverse DNS records for the IP address(es) from which you send mail, pointing to your domain. Use the same address in the 'From:' header on every bulk mail you send.

We also recommend the following:

Sign messages with DKIM. We do not authenticate messages signed with keys using fewer than 1024 bits. Publish an SPF record. Publish a DMARC policy.

DKIM would be my recommendation. OT:

Regards,

Nothing particularly helpful on the gmail help page it links me to (just very general stuff).

The (possibly?) relevant bits from the header could be:

Received-SPF: none (google.com: kls@tvdr.de does not designate permitted sender hosts) client-ip=188.40.50.18; Authentication-Results: mx.google.com; spf=none (google.com: kls@tvdr.de does not designate permitted sender hosts) smtp.mail=kls@tvdr.de

Thanks. I have now added an SPF record to my server's DNS setup. Hopefully this will help. Could you perhaps test this again (it may take up to a day, though, until the DNS change has propagated). You could simply access your VDR User Counter entry again and click on the "Change" button, even without making any actual changes. It will then send you an email, from which you should please send me the relevant headers (like the ones above), so I can see whether Gmail sees things differently now.
