Every time I e-mail someone, the message gets blocked by a spam filter need help?

I've been trying to e-mail my teachers but every time I try sending them a message, I get

"Remote host said: 550 Your message has been temporarily blocked by our filter because it contains SPAM like characteristics."

I use yahoo.com to e-mail my teachers but I guess they're not going to get them when a spam filter keeps blocking my messages.

How do I fix this problem?

    Try these things:

    =>Make sure you write something in the Subject line & not leave it blank.

    =>Dont write too many words in CAPS.

    Are you leaving the subject area blank or putting something very general like "hi"? That is very likely the cause.
