spamassasin HTML_IMAGE_ONLY

Question

My mails get 1.6 points (out of max 2 to be classified by spam) from this rule:

SpamAssassin Rule: HTML_IMAGE_ONLY_24

Standard description: HTML: images with 2000-2400 bytes of words

Explanation

This may indicate a message using an image instead of words in order to sidestep text-based filtering.

I have two images embedded in my mail - is that really not possible? How am I even to understand the phrase "with 2000 bytes of words".

Shouldnt it less strict if you embedd the images - as the mails grows larger in size and make it less likely to be spam?

Answer 1

You should take a look here. If you embed images on your mail you'll reduce HTML code and you should get a smaller score
