Also, spam filters are less rigid on plain text.

6. Avoiding Spam Filters – Be careful to not use common sales words that spam filters look for and block. Avoid such words or phrases as: Reverses Aging, Viagra, Impotence, Fat loss, Consolidate debt, The best rate, Money Making, Strong buy, Free, accept major credit cards, etc. For more words visit: http://www.keywebdata.com/articles.aspx?article=15
