Thanks Randy ,thats really helpful.Can you remove the domain from the above though .I'll give those things a shot.

Sorry...  thought I had caught all of the references.  Fixed.

After all the adjustments it gets quite high marks on a lot of the email testers but still throws a lot of mails into spam.Google trying to get me to pay through the nose just to talk to them,its bs really .shouldnt have to pay to get their server taken off the black list

To be honest, it might be better to switch mail providers. Heck… even possibly use your own server’s built in mail capability. Will most likely be easier.

yep its taken days for me to do this and a nigh on perfect score ,tearing my hair out doesnt even come close to how im feeling

Surprised this hasn’t been addressed really, just curious as to how others are doing this are successful platforms using a forwarding service ?

I use own server. 

• E-Mails are sent via SMTP.
• I have SFP, DKIM and DMARC.
• abuse@mydomain.com and postmaster@mydomain.com are set as alias

Have you checked if your domain or IP is blacklisted? E. g. here https://mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx

Domain ip isn’t blacklisted however certain Google workspace ips are but they still go to spam every time any tips on setting up server side mail with aws server

It seems to be the issue that e-mail from your domain has been reported as spam. Have you setup DMARC and taken a look at Google's postmaster tool linked earlier in the thread?

This is not a universal issue affecting anyone using Google Workspace, yet one where email from your domain is flagged as spam for some reason. Moving providers may not have the outcome you are expecting. Google Workspace isn't going to be on a blocklist. I think you need to focus on resolving the root of the issue.

For AWS, the service you want is SES:

I would highly discourage using your web server as the final MTA.

My Humble Opinion

I cant stand gmail (Google) or hotmail (Microsoft)...... Had no end of trouble over the years, there support sucks, its never them if they eventually reply, yet the problem is actually always their end....
