Wordfence Alerts/Activity

Hello,
Any emails notifications from WordPress and Wordfence are getting placed in my spam folder. I have been working with my host to correct this problem. Apparently my shared server has been blacklisted for email spamming.

My host has recommended two options:
1) Re-configure your script to send mail via SMTP mail instead.
2) Google fetch method.

From a Security/Wordfence perspective, which option do you recommend?

Do you have any other recommendations or concerns?

I have been logging in/out of my WordPress site to receive a Wordfence “Admin Login” alert email to monitor/test the methods above to see if my emails are still placed in the spam folder. Wordfence is emailing a login alert for my first login, but not any subsequent logins. I’m assuming Wordfence waits a certain time period before sending another “Admin Login” alert email. Just curious, what is that “Time Period” that must pass before another email login alert is sent out??

Thanks
Clint
