uhmmm....
Anyone writing newsletter with some attention will not use these words anyway.
I thinks this list will be useful to spammers... :-(
"Beginning with Outlook 98, you get built-in junk mail processing, using either the Organize pane or Rules Wizard. However, results can be less than satisfactory, often putting wanted senders into the Junk Mail folder." (Source: "Rules and Tools to Filter Junk e-Mail")
Many email newsletter publishers have been experiencing a major drop to newsletter subscriptions caused by the ever increasing quantity of spam and junk email we are all bombarded with.
In fear of freely offering their private emails to unscrupulous marketers, many individuals are refraining from subscribing to email-based newsletters, as they all require for you to submit your email to a company with no guarantee that this will not be sold or abused by others.
To add insult to injury, the newsletters sent to many of those trusting Internet users that have indeed chosen to share their email with you, may be easily blocked, and auto-deleted or trashed by the "standard" Microsoft Outlook email junk filter.
As Outlook is more ubiquitous than water, at least when it comes to email applications, this list of flagged junk words may be something that can be extremely useful for any independent newsletter publisher.
Microsoft's own list of "junk" words is automatically flagged by the Outlook junk filter (for those who keep this feature active). But if you can keep these words out of your email-based newsletter you won't be considered a spammer from Outlook anymore.
The Microsoft Junk E-Mail Filter
The Junk and Adult Content filters of Microsoft Outlook work by looking for key words inside the text of incoming emails.
This list is a description of exactly which words the filter looks for and where the filter looks for them.
