我的MediaWiki子域的确认电子邮件将直接发送到垃圾邮件

Question

Need some help diagnosing why conformation emails for my Mediawiki are going straight to spam, had to lock down the Wiki due to bots. http://wiki.piratemc.com is my wiki address.

Email is needed for account conformation emails. I'm running SMTP through Googles business servers since email got disabled on my host to send out emails via the local mail server, I assume to stop spam bots being used.

Im using the example from this talk comment in my config:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual_talk:$wgSMTP#Example_using_Google_Mail

It's got to be a setting with the built in mediawiki, or something to do with me using a subdomain, or DNS? Because all user accounts created on my main website ran by wordpress/buddypress go through fine through the google servers.

Im using Cloudflare to run my DNS, I created an A record and pointed that to my Web hosting IP, and created the sub-domain in cpanel to get the sub-domain setup.

Well let's see, I registered on your wiki with a Gmail address and I got:

DKIM and SPF pass, IPs and domains don't seem blocked at https://www.spamhaus.org/lookup/ : that's pretty good! Maybe you just needed more time to get out of some blacklist after you fixed the configuration?

Alternatively, there might be some content-based spam filter. You should check said spam filter and report back to them that they are blocking legitimate content.
