This depends entirely on the mail provider and their anti-spam policies - at
both ends of the transmission.
I regularly send legitimate mails that look exactly like spam - a simple
mail with an attached document, addressed to me, with a BCC list of between
a dozen and a couple of hundred recipients. It's taken an amount of
careful work to make sure that the mail gets through.
I use a paid 3rd party mail provider who is aware that my purposes are
legitimate and don't block my mails, but even so, some of the recipients
have to have my address explicitly whitelisted by their IT groups or mail
administrators or they will never receive the mail.
So, you need to consult with your mail provider, and make clear to the
recipients that mail from you is legitimate. If you manage to trip spam
filters often enough to get your email address on a blacklist, it can take
quite some time to figure out where the problem is and then longer to get it
fixed.
