It’s a misnomer that the word “free” will exclusively get you filtered. That might have been the case years ago, but is no longer true. Adding characters to words like “F*R*E*E*” in 2010 is *more* likely to get you filtered than just using the word normally.

My guidance would be to write emails normally, using plain English and spend your time and effort creating messages that recipients want, value, and engage with. Subscriber engagement is the key to getting your emails consistently delivered over time rather than funny spelling tricks.

FYI: Everything is fairly similar in Aweber.

The SPAM checker is a HUGE help. If you (mostly beginners) have ever noticed newsletters coming in with words like F*R*E*E* or F/R/E/E/, this is not a really bad typo; it’s done purposely to pass the spam filters.

My advise, don’t; or use it very rarely. If at all possible, change the word(s) entirely as Jackie mentioned above. While it “works”, the reader will get quite irritated seeing half of the page looking like that.
