Need Help With My Email Subject Line!

Okay. So subject line doesn't make much sense. Although, I am sure, given time we could link it all together in a logical way...

Anyway. How long does it take you to make your mind up about an email?

Instant?

I look at the Subject and From while hovering over the Delete button. Developed an INSTINCT for what is and is not SPAM. From trial and error maybe.

Of course, anything with "xyzhbk lkfnid" anywhere - in the from or subject - is a dead give-away. So too any sex words, medication, loans, etc.

Sometimes. They try to trick you. Send email with "Hello" in subject line.

Getting a sixth-sense about those too.

Basically, if I didn't ask for it, don't know you, and the subject has no amount of genuine personalization (see my other post in this thread), it's nuked un-opened.

Don't bounce back stuff because the last thing I want is some spammer to think it's a dud address and start using it as a From address. Already get enough of that as it is. (It's spooky to get a spam with your own from address on it.)

As for BTU... that stands for Bandwidth Throttling Ubiquity.

Spam is like a pebble in a pond. Starts out from the middle and goes everywhere similtaneously. WOW, so my subject line does make sense after all hehe.
