Using DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) can prevent emails from being considered as spam. More details about this subject can be found in the discussion on the Strapi forum: Unsolved problem: emails goes to spam!

#### Generate the keys using OpenSSL

`perl
openssl genrsa -out dkim-private.pem 1024
openssl rsa -in dkim-private.pem -pubout -out dkim-public.pem
`
