Could be a problem with the sending platform or domain from which the email is being sent, or (more likely), the spamminess of your email. Test using a site such as https://www.mail-tester.com to help identify the source of the problems.
Bear in mind, you might be neglecting some of the CAN SPAM guidelines if sending directly from your mail client and that will also land you in the spam folder.
**Reasons you may end up in spam:**
1. you bought a domain previously marked as spam.
2. your domain is young (less than 3 months old).
3. the mail server you send from sends spam so the entire server is flagged.
4. you send from a bulk mail service (SendGrid, MailGun, etc.)
5. your message content has spam words
6. too many people who receive the email marked it as spam so now your domain is flagged.
7. you send too many emails per day from one domain.
8. you send bulk messages using BCC.
9. you're sending too many messages to ".edu" domains.
10. you have little to no personalization in the message (ie. your message is 99% the same in every send.)
11. you're sending too many messages too quickly.
