Email Bounce Back from ISP

Any thoughts on how to defeat the filter

Don't use send/receive but send them "immediately", as (I thought) someone
had already posted, or use a paid-for mail service, so you can bypass your
ISP's handling. Someone years ago posted about Freeserve consigning
"bulk" mail to its own bit-bin. So sending a party invite to 30 friends
and as it went over some "unwritten" (seemed to be no written info to
confirm their restrictions) rule(s), it'd be sent to none of them at all.

Yahoo probably lets you send mail, but it puts their advert on. I use some
other services which don't append their own messages, fortunately.

if all else fails you could set up your own outbound mail server,

Getting harder and harder - most RBL providers now list all ntl's
dynamic IP blocks and your mail will not get through. I've recently
been forced to switch back to using ntl's 'smarthost' (ha) for my mail
as direct sends were getting silently rejected.

causing it)

The filter is there to prevent spamming, if you want to avoid it, you
need to stop your mail looking like spam...

Don't send out large numbers of identical mails.
Send mails individually as written instead of in bulk.
Avoid SHOUTING and excessive punctuation.!!!!!!!

Hi! Thanks for the response.

One of the things I have done is to add a random number to the first
line of the body which was supposed to have cured this........but
maybe
just 1 number in not enough.

All you did was try to get past filters that check on hash values.
Hash-busting doesn't work against Bayes filters which couldn't give a
gnat's fart about your extraneous hash-bust string.
