Are Your Emails Being Ignored? (or: How To Get Your Email Past SpamAssassin)

Have you ever wondered why someone ignored your email? Chances are, your message wasn't even read because something called "SpamAssassin" labeled your email as "spam" (unsolicited commercial email), and your recipient probably just deleted your message.

SpamAssassin looks for certain patterns in your email, and assigns "spam points" depending on certain words that you typed in there. If your score is 5.0 or higher, your email's subject line is edited -- SpamAssassin inserts "* SPAM*" at the start of your email.

The result: Your recipient thinks your message is spam (along with the hundreds of other emails clogging their inbox), and promptly deletes your message.

Wouldn't it be great if you could know your "spam score" ahead of time, edit your message so that it gets a score lower than 5.0, and improve the chances that your message gets read in the first place? Here's how...

Simply send your sample email message or newsletter to:
spamcheck@viloria.com

Start your subject line with the word TEST (all caps) then followed by the actual words you want to put in the Subject line.

Next, type your message in the BODY of that email, send it, and wait.

Within minutes, you'll get a free report on your "spam score."

If it's below 5, feel free to send your email to your intended recipient/s. If the score is above 5, the report will show you what words trigger those "hmmm, looks like spam" programs.

Isn't it time you stop getting ignored? Use this FREE email tool today! Send your test email to:
spamcheck@viloria.com

Remember, put the word TEST in the Subject line first. And don't worry, I won't see the contents of your message.

(Did you know that by posting that email above, I'll soon be getting loads of unsolicited email from all over? That's why I've programmed the above email so that I won't see any message addressed to it. Your messages will be automatically sent to the spam-checking program. Check it out today!)
