A Question for Spammers

May 9th, 2004 · View Comments · spam

Does sending multiple copies of the same message get a better response or open rate?

There must be some logic as to why I sometimes get a dozen of the same message at once. It’s interesting to note these when I scan messages caught first by Spam Assassin and then by Spam Sieve in my spam folder. I can’t understand what the purpose is other than an phone book attack on a domain which certainly plays a role.

I’ve got images off so I know I’m not sending anything back when I review these… Many times I’ll get several at once all to the same name, though not usually me, just another open address I’ve got on my domain for various purposes.
