Maybe get an SSL for your domain? Not sure to be honest the e-mail program thinks the email is not legit enough so you got to turn it some how in a safe looking email which is pretty hard with registration emails.
Any other ideas please ?
You could simply alert new members to the fact that this happens and ask them to whitelist your domain and/or the email address those will be coming from. I've seen a lot of sites do that for the same basic problem - registration emails often get sent to spam.
Are you using PHP mail? If you are then try SMTP, also take a look at this thread http://community.mybboard.net/thread-56663.html
If you are using PHP mail here is one thing that may help.

in ACP > Configuration > Mail Settings

Additional Parameters for PHP's mail()

add

-f [email protected] (change [email protected] to forum name at forum domain name)

See some more info at http://us3.php.net/function.mail
I suggest using the Standard Google Apps service (Free)

I can help you with setup if you want (No cost)

You can get an e-mail like: [email protected]

So the E-mail domain is your domain. It can host up to 50 accounts I think.
