Rented or third party list
• These kinds of email lists are usually considered poor sources for getting email addresses because the receivers do not directly agree to get information from you, and may not be expecting your message. They are less probable to go through the emails and more likely to report your messages as spam.

An unsubscribe or opt out link
• A spam complaint is generally a very negative act, whereas an email unsubscribe is considered less damaging. Providing your recipients with the alternative to unsubscribe or deal with notification preferences are optional.

Use of the old email list
• Email ids usually have a short lifespan. Email recipients change jobs, names, make and delete email ids at will. As an outcome, email addresses can become unacceptable over time. As a rule of thumb, emails that were gathered more than six months before may be considered old.

Not sending consistent mails
• Sending irregular emails make your subscribers forget that they had signed up for your messages and, consequently, they are more probable to push the spam button simply because they do not identify the sender.

Use of misleading subject lines
• It is good to have an attractive email subject line, but do not mislead your subscribers. This means you should not put 'Re:' before the subject line to trap subscribers, do not mention anything inappropriate and don't discuss enclosed account information if there is actually no account involved.

Sending excessive emails
• Though the emails are what subscribers demanded, sending too irregular emails will result in spam grievances. On the reverse, sending too infrequently may cause your customers to overlook why they are getting your messages.
