The Email Curse Word Database

The Email Curse Word Database

Today I wanted to put together a list.

This list is what I consider the ultimate “curse word” database for email marketing.

And is a resource for words to be cautious with based on our experience here at Sendlane.

These are all tested and proven to be words that raise red flags.

Using these email curse words will dramatically increase your chances of hitting the SPAM or junk email box…
