Lovable email

Transactional Emails Going to Spam from Lovable App

Emails sent by your Lovable app (welcome emails, password resets, notifications, receipts) are landing in users' spam or junk folders instead of their inbox. Some users never receive the emails at all.

Poor email deliverability means users miss critical communications — they can't reset passwords, don't receive order confirmations, and miss important notifications. This directly impacts user trust and business operations.

The problem may be inconsistent: emails reach Gmail but not Outlook, or they work for some users but not others. Corporate email addresses often have stricter spam filters that block your emails entirely.

Error Messages You Might See

Message marked as spam 550 Message rejected due to SPF check failure DMARC validation failed Email bounced: recipient server rejected
Message marked as spam550 Message rejected due to SPF check failureDMARC validation failedEmail bounced: recipient server rejected

Common Causes

  • No SPF/DKIM/DMARC records — Your domain lacks email authentication DNS records, making spam filters suspicious
  • Sending from a free email domain — Using @gmail.com or @outlook.com as the from address instead of your own domain
  • New domain without reputation — Your domain is new and hasn't established a sending reputation
  • Spam trigger words — Email subject or body contains words that trigger spam filters (FREE, URGENT, ACT NOW)
  • No unsubscribe link — Marketing emails without an unsubscribe option are flagged as spam

How to Fix It

  1. Set up SPF, DKIM, and DMARC — Configure these DNS records for your domain in your DNS provider (instructions vary by email service)
  2. Use a dedicated sending domain — Send from an address on your own domain (e.g., noreply@yourapp.com) not a free email
  3. Use a reputable email service — Use Resend, SendGrid, or Postmark instead of sending directly from your server
  4. Warm up your domain — Start by sending small volumes and gradually increase to build reputation
  5. Check with mail-tester.com — Send a test email to mail-tester.com to get a deliverability score and specific improvement suggestions

Costea Adrian Costea Adrian Embedded Engineer specilizing in perception systems. Latest project was a adas camera calibration system. David Olverson David Olverson Solo dev shipping production apps with AI-assisted development. I specialize in rescuing broken Lovable/Bolt/Cursor builds and taking them to production. 10+ apps shipped including SaaS CRMs, gaming platforms, real estate tools, and Discord bots. Stack: Next.js 16, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Prisma. I use Claude Code with 50+ custom skills for rapid delivery. Average turnaround: 2-4 weeks from broken prototype to production. Jacek Rozanski Jacek Rozanski Senior PHP/Symfony developer and DevOps engineer with 20+ years of professional experience, running opcode.pl (web development agency, est. 2004). Day job: I'm the sole backend developer at merketing company where I own and maintain 11 PHP/Symfony microservices on AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, CloudFront), handle the full CI/CD pipeline (Bitbucket Pipelines, Docker), and manage monitoring with Sentry and CloudWatch. These services handle high request volumes in production every month. What I bring to AI-built apps: - I audit and fix security issues (OWASP methodology), performance bottlenecks, and architectural problems in codebases generated by Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, and v0 - I refactor AI-generated prototypes into production-grade applications with proper error handling, testing, and clean architecture (SOLID, DDD, hexagonal architecture) - I set up the infrastructure AI tools don't touch: AWS hosting, CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, database optimization, monitoring, and alerting - I integrate external services: payment providers, email systems, partner APIs, SSO/auth Tech stack: PHP 8.x, Symfony, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Docker, AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, SQS/SNS, CloudFront), Terraform, Supabase. I also use AI tools daily (Claude Code, Cursor) in my own workflow, so I understand both the strengths and the gaps in AI-generated code. Based in Poland (CET timezone).

Stanislav Prigodich Stanislav Prigodich 15+ years building iOS and web apps at startups and enterprise companies. I want to use that experience to help builders ship real products - when something breaks, I'm here to fix it. Alvin Voo Alvin Voo I’ve watched the tech landscape evolve over the last decade—from the structured days of Java Server Pages to the current "wild west" of Agentic-driven development. While AI can "vibe" a frontend into existence, I specialize in the architecture that keeps it from collapsing. My expertise lies in the critical backend infrastructure: the parts that must be fast, secure, and scalable. I thrive on high-pressure environments, such as when I had only three weeks to architect and launch an Ethereum redemption system with minimal prior crypto knowledge, turning it into a major revenue stream. What I bring to your project: Forensic Debugging: I don't just "patch" bugs; I use tools like Datadog and Explain Analyzers to map out bottlenecks and resolve root causes—like significantly reducing memory usage by optimizing complex DB joins. Full-Stack Context: Deep experience in Node.js and React, ensuring backends play perfectly with mobile and web teams. Sanity in the Age of AI: I bridge the gap between "best practices" and modern speed, ensuring your project isn't just built fast, but built to last.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are SPF, DKIM, and DMARC?

These are DNS records that prove you're authorized to send email from your domain. SPF lists allowed sending servers, DKIM adds a cryptographic signature, and DMARC tells receiving servers what to do if checks fail.

Which email service should I use?

Resend is great for developers and integrates easily with modern apps. SendGrid and Postmark are also excellent. All three have free tiers for small volumes.
