Deliverability

What actually decides if your email lands in the inbox

Spam filtering is a scoring system, not a single switch. Here is what moves the needle.

How spam filters work

Providers score every message on authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), sender reputation, recipient engagement and content signals. Each risky signal adds points; cross the threshold and the message goes to spam. Content is the part you fully control before hitting send.

Common spam trigger words

Words like free, act now, limited time, urgent, winner, congratulations, cash, cheap spike scores — especially in the subject line or combined with shouting capitals and repeated punctuation.

How to improve inbox placement

Authenticate your domain, keep lists clean, send at a steady volume, remove hard bounces, and write emails people reply to. Engagement is the strongest long-term signal you have.

Best practices for business email

One clear purpose per email, a specific subject, real personalization, plain sentence case, 80–200 words, one link and one obvious next step. Skip images-only emails and link shorteners.

How Mailvern helps improve deliverability

Mailvern sends from your own Gmail account, so you inherit your existing domain reputation instead of a shared bulk-sender IP. Conditional sending means only the rows that actually need an email get one — smaller, more relevant sends with higher engagement. Merge fields personalize every message from your sheet, and open tracking shows which campaigns are landing.

FAQ

Email Spam Checker questions

How does the Email Spam Checker work?

It analyzes your subject line and email body in your browser using weighted rules — capitalization, punctuation, trigger words, link density, personalization, readability and length — and returns a spam score from 0 to 100 with fixes for every issue found.

Is my email content uploaded anywhere?

No. The analysis runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server, stored, or shared.

What is a good spam score?

90 and above is excellent, 75–89 is good, 50–74 needs improvement, and below 50 means your email is at high risk of landing in spam.

Does a perfect score guarantee inbox placement?

No tool can guarantee inbox placement. Content is only one factor — sender reputation, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, list quality and engagement all matter too.

Is the Email Spam Checker free?

Yes, it is completely free and requires no account.
