As a tip for next time, if you really want to host your email but you don't want to put up with dealing with emails being sent to spam boxes, you can just use an SMTP relay/proxy provider. Your email isn't hosted there but they do send it on and will be the 'source' mail server and is going to be much, much, much cheaper than paying someone to host your email for a bunch of users.
