Sending a bulk email - will it get flagged as spam?
It's NOT SPAM!!!! Like I said - these are opt-in clients, meaning they all agreed/signed up to get emails from us.
Thanks

My Guess, if these people dont have you as a contact or on an "allowed" type list, i.e. Signed up to your newletter. It may get blocked by their spam filter as unsocilited advertising etc.
Hope that helps a little.

Why do that? Spam is lame and if it is advertising rubbish people don't want then yes it will go to bulk as Hotmale and Gmail have an interlinked web filter so if a few people put it as bulk then its all bulk.
Stop spamming peopl!

Whoa, take it easy. I thought you were looking for help to AVOID it being flagged as spam. I thought these suggestions would HELP you avoid that.
Most spam filters use the content (or lack thereof) to help determine if an e-mail is spam. One of the most important things to do is to avoid key spam words or phrases. Rather than run the risk of having your e-mail blocked for including them, check out these web sites that have some great lists of words you should avoid.
Some content lists: phrases to avoid and alternatives:
Some other general tips include:
* Be particularly mindful of the words used in your Subject line (and always have a subject line).
* Avoid liberal use of punctuation, such as a string of exclamation marks or dollar signs.
* Avoid Capitalizations if at all possible.
* Avoid using HTML formatted e-mails if possible - plain text is more likely to be accepted.
* If you are going to use HTML formatted e-mails, make sure the HTML is simple, straightforward and that you have a lot more content than HTML.
* Avoid using hyperlinks with IP addresses instead of domain names.
* Make sure you include a signature block on your e-mail - this helps reduce your chance of being flagged as spam.
