My wild guess is that it has something to do with SPF or DomainKeys or
whatever the current preferred system is. Essentially, the Rogers SMTP
server isn't the sanctioned/properly registered SMTP server for your
domain, so your email is considered far more likely to be spam these days
because your email domain and the server don't match. I don't know if it's
possible to designate their server appropriately without their involvement.

You could try using your web host's SMTP server. Presumably they've already
set things up correctly for you.

Or wait for a mail admin to reply...
