[your-email] ! Unsafe email config is used without sufficient protection.

that warning is not about your message text 👍
It’s a Contact Form 7 security warning and very common. Here’s what it means and how to fix it properly.

❗ Why you’re seeing this warning

You have this in Mail (2) → To:

[your-email]

CF7 flags this as unsafe because emails are being sent directly to user-input email addresses without verification. This can be abused for spam if not protected.

CORRECT & SAFE WAY (Recommended)

Step 1: Keep To as [your-email]

That’s fine — but you must add Additional Headers.

Step 2: Add this in Additional Headers

Paste exactly this:

Reply-To: [your-email]

✔ This tells CF7 the email is intentional
✔ Warning usually disappears
✔ Improves email deliverability

BEST PRACTICE SETUP (Industry Standard)

Mail (2) settings should be:

To

[your-email]

From

SEO Tool King <noreply@seotoolking.com>

Additional Headers

Reply-To: noreply@seotoolking.com

👉 This makes it clear the email is system-generated and safe.

EXTRA STRONG FIX (If warning still shows)

Enable one of these:

• Contact Form 7 → reCAPTCHA
• Or use Flamingo plugin
• Or install an SMTP plugin (VERY recommended)

Best SMTP plugins:

• WP Mail SMTP
• FluentSMTP
• Post SMTP Mailer

SMTP = no warnings + emails won’t land in spam.
