not universally effective
Of course this will only have an effect if the bounced emailer gets back to the
spammer and that the spammer uses such bounces to clean up their list of addresses.
I do not think that the majority of spammers operate in this way. For the most part, spam is sent from throwaway accounts or sent with forged headers so that it apears to come from someone other than the spammer. Thus, the bounces are more than likely just going to some innocent or non-existant address. I try to report all spam to spamcop.net which analyses spam and reports to the appropriate people abuses of their systems. Not as easy as a "bounce" button, but maybe a bit more useful. (Acutally, with Eudora I have a "spamcop" button that is pretty conventient.)
spamcop button?
I'd like to see this if I could. Is it an applescript or plugin, and where would I be able to find it? ^_~
Bounce is ineffective
I have never had a successful bounce; every single one has come back to me as "not a valid sender address," so I don't bother trying anymore. |
