Yes — several free or freemium tools analyse your campaigns before sending and return a spam score (typically out of 10).

Pro tip: aim for a score above 8/10 on Mail-Tester before any important send. Below 7/10, the spam risk is high.

How to use Mail-Tester

  1. Open mail-tester.com and copy the test address shown
  2. In Mailpro, build your campaign
  3. Send a test to that address
  4. Click Check your score
  5. Mail-Tester shows the score and the fixes needed

What the score analyses

  • Authentication: SPF, DKIM, DMARC
  • Content: text-to-image ratio, spam words, HTML tags
  • IP reputation: public blacklists
  • Technical format: correct headers, valid links

Mailpro covers most of it for you

Mailpro applies best practices by default — SPF/DKIM auth, unsubscribe link, clean encoding, etc. But a final pre-flight check is still useful to validate your specific content.
