This is silly. Nobody should censor what they write because someone's
spam filter might pick it up. Instead, everyone should learn from your
experience and make sure they:

1. Understand their ISPs spam filtering features.
2. Perform the appropriate modifications to ensure DML mail gets past them.

ISP spam filters are great, except for one problem: Most of the time
they just turn them on and don't tell people! All spam filters mark
legitimate messages as spam from time to time, so people need to be
given the option to disable these things or alter their rulesets.

If anyone is unsure about their ISP's spam filtering, call them and ask.
