Member email - bounce back

Hello, 

I am trying to send an email to all the members in my toastmaster club (695848). I go to our toastmaster website>club email address> and then copy the member email address. I paste this to member email address to my email. I confirmed I am using the same email address I have associated to my account. I then get a bounce back when I sent the email. I am not using BCC.

Thank you,

I am seeing a spam warning from that email.

What exactly are you sending to the members? Subject and bodhy of the email please.

Hello Brian, 

The purpose of the email is to recap on a speech from last night and I attached an international Toastmaster form to the email. Email subject is "Highlights from Yesterday’s Speech + Mentorship Interest Form". Body of the email is just text, approximately 4 paragraphs. 

Which email is getting the spam alert? Is it mine? I am using the same email that is connected to International Toastmaster and my local club toastmaster website.

Yes your gmail email address.
