When a user registers the confirmation email is sent to their spam folder. Is there any way to fix this? If not, how can I remove email confirmation?
Registration email sent to spam box?

It could be any number of reason that emails are going to the spam folders, but its worth doing the following
You could try a 3rd party mail service like mandrill to send emails, they allow up to 12,000 emails a month for free.
Email confirmation is a necessary step to prevent spammers, even better is when the user has to activate their account by clicking a link in the email they received.
- Add SPF and DKIM DNS records in order to certify that the e-mails are legitimate.
- Change the default “from” e-mail address and “from name” fields.
- Change the wording in both the email subject and content.

Sorry would you be able to explain how I add SPF and DKIM DNS records?
Also, is there any way to allow the user to choose a password when signing up, rather than a random one being sent to them?
Thanks

Are you using any form of control panel such as cPanel?
In cPanel, you just click the Email Authentication icon.
You can then just click Enable for DKIM & SPF.
Also, are you using PHP or SMTP to send the emails? PHP will pretty much always go to junk/spam.

hey thanks a lot for the reply.. I assume it's php sending the mail, it's just on the default, if you could tell me how to change it to smtp that would be greatly appreciated
I have enabled DKIM and SPF in cpanel email authentication and have filled in my smtp info on the admin page, and set smpt as the method for sending emails, but the email is still sent to the span folder? Also, the mail is from [email protected] even though i set the email to 'noreply@*mywebsite*.com. The only thing I haven't done is change the default email message because I don't know what file is for that
Any ideas?

Nearly all of the site text is in the translations section of the admin control panel.
Whats your site, I will sign up to test it

Sign up for some mail service like Zoho [Send and Receive] or Mandrill [Send] and this will deliver the mail directly to their inbox.

How much it will cost if I will use mandrill? Set up is easy?
