Gmail uses its own scanning and logic to know whether the incoming mail on their mailboxes is SPAM, promotional, solicited or un-solicited mail.
then based on feedbacks from various users they would internally classify your mail server and the action they want.
what I mean feedback is they seem to calculate how many of those mails were moved to inbox by users, how many tried un-subscribing, and how many reported it as phishing or spam.
There's no hard or fast rule, but if you play fair and safe, Gmail would have no problems accepting your mail directly to their users Inbox.
