DomainKeys with Php?

Alot of email I send from php/sendmail just ends up in spam/bulk
folders. Is there a way I can use this new DomainKeys (from yahoo) to
make my emails less perceivable as spam? Its probably not a simple
thing to do but I think it will be worth the effort.

If you are using a shared host, make sure you use the 5th parameter in
the mail() function to set the "from" domain to be the same as your
domain. If they don't match, Yahoo and Hotmail will usually reject them
as spam.

The format of this parameter would be '-f us**@yourdomain.com'.

I don't think it matters with Yahoo - it just rejects stuff as spam
randomly, it seems.

My printer has had the last two of my emails (personal emails, not from a
form) land in his SPAM box. Both of them were replies to emails from him.

Go figure...
