Email Spam Checker (Spam Score)

Check an email for spam triggers before you send it — trigger phrases, ALL CAPS, excessive punctuation, link ratio, URL shorteners, deceptive subjects and missing unsubscribe links. Get a spam score and fixes.

How to use

  1. 1Paste the email — put the subject on a line starting with “Subject:”.
  2. 2Read the spam score and each finding.
  3. 3Fix the flagged items and check again.

How it's calculated

Each finding adds points (0–10, lower is better): trigger phrases 0.5 each (max 4), heavy ALL CAPS 1–2, many exclamation marks 0.5–1.5, repeated symbols 1, link-heavy text 1, URL shorteners 1.5, raw-IP links 2, all-caps or fake RE:/FW: subjects 1.5, missing unsubscribe on marketing mail 1.5.

Frequently asked questions

Does a low score guarantee inbox delivery?

No. Content is only part of it — your sending domain's SPF, DKIM and DMARC records, sender reputation and recipients' engagement matter more. But fixing content problems removes easy reasons for filters to flag you.

Can I use words like “free” at all?

Yes. One trigger word in a well-written email from a reputable sender is fine. Filters react to many signals together — lots of triggers, caps and links at once.

Is my email text sent anywhere?

No — the check runs in your browser.
