Getting by email filters just requires tweaking of the message thats all , and really it isnt needed , the user cant access the area until he checks his email.. if he cant find the email he will check his "bulk/spam" folder or he wont get access , at the same time he will see your "advertising message" you have sent at the same time it will be right below the verification email so they are SURE to see it even if it gets sent to the bulk folder . The point of NOT using the geo targetting beforehand is done on purpose so that when they check the email they see an email with the subject line containg their city ( even though they didnt enter a city )
Although your right i should add a message to the "check your email for verification" and let them know the email might hit their spam folder.. but like i said it almost works better this way , because the advertising email you send along with the verification email will be alot harder to keep from the spam folder, and this way they will already be in their spam folder looking for the verification email..

trust me i have thought about all this . I have run my own email program for about a year now , i have quite a big database of emails ( EXCLUSIVE ) and back to back have made more from them than with the email sponsors i was using before ( i used cecash ftc and gammacash ) I still do use them for some things, .. this isnt for everyone its for s certain purpose for a forward thinking person who is also interested in cross-promotions

theres lots of possibilties.
I may have given some people the wrong impression maybe, the email isn't the trick , its using it in combination with a geo-ip script to do EFFECTIVE advertisiing
