When someone completes a form via the website it takes a while to send the email and the site in sense locks up till it is sent. The other issue is when the email is sent it shows up as spam.. last host company always sent the email as "via vz01.nodekicloud.com" any suggestion would be helpful

What MTA are you using? You can find out by running the following command: 
sudo ps wwaux | egrep "postfix|mail|exim"
