So... it's a reinforcement learning tool for spammers?
- Disruptive_Dave 11y agoI've used it (amongst other email testing tools) for quite some time now to validate the thousands of emails we send each week for BoomboxFM[1]. And none of those emails are "spam". Email is the delivery system for our product, and trust me, it sucks trying to figure out why people who 100% want your emails don't always get them straight to their inbox. Particularly with Gmail.

- username223 11y agoI know all about the nuisance of BigCorp dumping my (non-commercial, mind you) email into the spam folder for obscure reasons, but whatever company you're trying to push, you miss the point. A web service to say "this is what most spam filters will do to your email" is just a training signal for spammers. That is, unless they are smart enough to implement an amazing meta-spam filter.
- hobarrera 11y agoIt's a tool, which can be used by anyone regardless of intention. Much like a scalpel can be used to save lives of kill people.
