Having carried out a test, an email that I am about to send to our clients
containing our monthly newsletter just got filtered straight into my hotmail
junk email folder. I'd like to try as best I can to avoid this happening at
the recipient end, to give us the best chance of having the newsletter found
and read.

Can anyone offer any suggestions as to wording that might have resulted in
this mail going to Junk instead of into my inbox? this could easily happen
to my clients too. I realise I can't totally avoid it but I can make efforts
to reduce the risk by reviewing the wording in the newsletter?

Thank you.

It's more than just the wording. It's also the sending information. If the
sending address appears to be off-network from the sending client, it can be
flagged as a phishing attempt. There may be other criteria of which I'm not
aware (and there probably is).
