I was amused to see that an email I received recently through a mailing list hosted by SourceForge and whose headers I happened to glance at was marked as possibly spam (1.9 points) and that part of this was 0.7 point for including the phrase "for FREE"—which came from the promotional footer that SourceForge itself had added to the message! (In this case, a vendor advertising that you should "download [the product] now for FREE".)
