I installed mediawiki using apt-get in Debian Etch.
When I click the "confirm email" as a wiki user, the confirmation mail
gets tagged as spam in both gmail and hotmail accounts.

Here is a copy of my mail header and mail body:

Someone, probably you from IP address 213.112.81.182, has registered an
account "Tommy" with this e-mail address on Neo101wiki.

To confirm that this account really does belong to you and activate
e-mail features on Neo101wiki, open this link in your browser:

If this is *not* you, don't follow the link. This confirmation code
will expire at 2007-07-26 10:31:53.

How did you solve this problem? I would give a bad first impression if I
were to ask my users to look for the confirmation mail in their spam-box.

P.S. I added the "NOSPAM" textstring by hand in this email.
