#2I've used mail-tester in the past and had great results with it. I highly recommend it!

#3How bizarre, was looking for one of these just last week because I'm starting to worry that my email signature's image tags are causing issues for some recipients.
Can't recommend these kind of tools enough!

#4Are there plans for an API (paid or otherwise)?
My SaaS has a built in marketing tool that allows for bulk email sending. I constantly run into an issue where customers have an image from a designer, and want to embed that image as the entire content of the email. Of course, that's flagged as spam. I would love to show users a spam score before they blast away.

#6I've used Postmark's JSON API to test spam-ratings of emails for years. Can't recommend enough.

#7Just ran this service through https://emailprivacytester.com/ - The mail-tester.com results page popped up a javascript alert injected by emailprivacytester.com which proves that the content of email is not being properly escaped in some manner at mail-tester.com before being displayed.

#9Since you absolutely have to run everything you plan on sending to a mailing list via spamassassin beforehand, mail-tester.com is a great tool. It saves the annoying work of cobbling together a spamassassin test script and integrating it into your workflow, and gives you a bunch of other checks while you're at it.
Spamassassin is half of the bane of my life when it comes to maintaining deliverability on a scientific mailing list:

It stops being a useful tool and starts being a mode of censorship that is in effect controlled by the people who practice fraud and abuse. It is very annoying to find all sorts of things that effectively can't be discussed by mail in a list: specific drugs and technical terms used in research, any research discussion or published research that uses long technical words in close proximity, fundraising for research, and so on and so forth. Every newsletter to the opt-in, well-gardened list becomes a little minefield of self-censorship as you go through multiple iterations with spamassassin, weeding out and rewording things.
It is all very trying. One has to think that there's a better way.

That's not ideal, but is also probably not a big deal in this case. There's no sensitive information to be stolen off the page here, and the only person who's going to see it is the attacker.
