Why Zendesk Tickets Are Detected as Spam
Why are my Zendesk tickets being detected as spam?
Tickets can be detected as spam for various reasons, leading to their suspension. This can happen if the requester was previously marked as spam, or if the content of the ticket is flagged by Zendesk's spam filter, Cloudmark, due to suspicious characteristics. To resolve this, you may need to unsuspend the user or adjust your email practices to avoid triggering the spam filter. For more details, check out the originalZendesk article.
