Gmail Spam Filter

One day in and we are learning that Gmail don’t seem to like our ‘verification emails’ or ‘invite a friend’ messages, as they are consistently going into our Gmail Spam box which is a bit of a pain.

We’ve been doing a lot of testing, but we’re yet to resolve the problem - bizarrely the route of the problem seems to lie in the word ‘local’ within the verification URL.  Having tested lots of variations, this consistently remains the Gmail spam trigger, not suprsisingly ‘love’.  So if you’ve signed up  with Gmail so far and managed to scoop your verification email out of your spam filter - thank you.  We’re aware of the problem and we hope to resolve it soon, thanks for your patience.
