I tried sending emails without the SMTP and some automated emails reached gmail inbox in some accounts and others went to junk folder!
But with my hotmail uk account, the automated emails reached my junk folder
One more thing, if you set an email account in your outlook or cell phone using the SMTP, your emails sent from these devices will never be marked as spam by default.
I am not professional or even in a moderate level, but i tried many times to make sure my visitors receive the automated emails without issues.

Is this true? Forgive me for asking but, why? Just curious
it depends on the host. if you are using a very inexpensive hosting company, their mailer is highly likely to be on a blacklist. the spam blacklists include domains, originator server ip addresses, and mail relays (among other things).. if your host is caught up anywhere along that chain, your email is likely to be sent to junk.
that said, if you pay more than 20 bucks a month for hosting you absolutely should not have this issue. it's hosts like 1and1 or joesfreewebhosting that create the creep factor.
