E-mail from backup service classified as spam

Hi,

I have enabled a number of backup jobs in the Web-UI of my B3. On the root account I have added a .forward file pointing to a external e-mail account. The issue I have is that my ISP is classifiying the e-mail from the backup activity as spam.
Jul 1 06:25:12 MorganB3 postfix/pickup[17160]: EFB496272: uid=0 from=<root>
Jul 1 06:25:13 MorganB3 postfix/cleanup[17509]: EFB496272: message-id=<20120701042512.EFB496272@MorganB3.hemma.moderatenmorgan.se>
Jul 1 06:25:13 MorganB3 postfix/qmgr[2305]: EFB496272: from=<root@hemma.moderatenmorgan.se>, size=867, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Jul 1 06:25:14 MorganB3 postfix/smtp[17511]: EFB496272: to=<root@hemma.moderatenmorgan.se>, orig_to=<root>, relay=smtp.comhem.basefarm.net[80.76.149.166]:25, delay=1.8, delays=0.07/0.03/0.06/1.6, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 Your spam message was discarded.)

I have also the DenyHost service running and the e-mails that it produces are forwarded correctly to the external e-mail account. So most likely there is nothing wrong with the e-mail settings. (Famous last words:-) )

I have slim hope in getting my ISP to change their spam filter so as I see it there are two options.

1) Modify the backup script so that the e-mails are not classified as spam
2) Have my e-mail client (Thunderbird) fetch the root e-mails directly from the B3

#2 above I would like to work regardless if my computer is located in my home network or if I am connected to a network from a remote place.

Any proposals on either or is there a third solution?

Best Regards,
Morgan

IS the sender email adres an real adres from exciting domain?
If not you need to change that
