A score of 5 or greater increases the chance that a message will be filtered or not delivered.  While no guarantee that your message will not be labeled as spam, we strongly suggest all messages be modified to reduce the score to less than 5.

Spam Check helps to evaluate whether an email message may be labeled as spam or unsolicited commercial email (UCE) by a recipients' email software/settings or Internet Service Provider.  A message labeled as spam may not be delivered to an intended recipient or marked as spam in their inbox.  Spam Check automatically reviews an email message and grades it against an open-source or public database for various attributes in your email message including content, design and transmission protocols that are thought to be used by spammers.  

fieldvalues['tot_score'] > 0) { ?> To reduce your potential spam score, modify the attributes of your message indicated below.  By correcting your email message you may be able to reduce your spam score by the points listed at the end of each item indicated.

Once an email message has been modified, we recommend running Spam Check again before sending.  Also, spam filtering rules change regularly so we suggest always using Spam Check with every email message.  If you do not understand any of the items listed above, please contact Client Services or Technical Support.
