What is the Spam Score?​

The lower your score, the more likely your email is going to be received in your subscribers inbox.

If you have a score more than 5 then that has a probability of landing up in spam then you will get an error stating your score is not appropriate, what you can do is you can read the instructions given there, follow those and you can make your score which fits the criteria.
