When testing Webflow Form emails with https://www.mail-tester.com/, I get a score 2/10 and the email ending in SPAM filters of our clients which is completely unprofessional. The only option I see is to use POST option and some service like MAKE.com to handle things for us, is there any other way to configure Webflow to be more mail-client-friendly? Why there is no focus on this issue?
Webflow’s form notification emails don’t look nice, but I’ve found them quite reliable- I’ve never seen them go to spam, unless the message content within is actually spam.
Here are some options;
Webflow forms, vanilla
Webflow forms, pointing to a different email handler like GetForm
Webflow forms, pointing to automation on Logic, Make or Zapier
3rd party embedded forms, like Jotform, Typeform, etc.
3rd party embedded forms, connected to automation
For your use case, you may want to check out the second one. It’s cheap, and looks like it will give you a lot of capabilities in how you present and send your messages.
For more serious clients, you’re much better off using automation, and feeding their leads directly into a lead management system like salesforce, pipedrive, or nutshell. I include that in my basic site design & delivery service, because if leads are handled badly, the site is a fail.
