    Hi, geeths, I would recommend creating a new support topic in the Contact Form 7 support threads, as their support community would be best able to assist you with this issue:

    If an email is being sent from your website domain, it should now have a FROM address from that domain. This is because emails are being spoofed by spammers and are being sent from a different domain (e.g. I send you a message from my domain asking for login details but claim to be from paypal.com). Such messages are being routed into the Spam folder, and so best practice is now to include a FROM email address that is from the website domain.

    Look at the following setup in the mail tab of Contact Form 7:

    == MAIL ==
    To: [email protected]
    From: [your-name] <[email protected]>
    Subject: Re: [your-subject]
    Additional Headers: Reply-To: [your-email]

    Hi @geeths

    There are 2 main ways you can fix this issue:

    1. Try changing the ‘address from’
    – Create a new email address (optional)
    – Change the ‘Email From’ section in Contact Form 7

    2. Use Contact Form 7 with WP Mail SMTP
    – Install WP Mail SMTP
    – Choose your Email Provider or SMTP Server
    – Enable email logging (Optional)

    Let me know if my answer can help you resolve your issue.
