I'm guessing the emails this generates will become flagged as spam themselves. Do spammers use spam filters too or would that prevent them from getting replies?

- CapacitorSet 10y agoSpam filters could do very little, because it's almost impossible to tell whether a conversation was run by a bot - and it's outright impossible to do so for a single response. However, you raise an interesting point: blacklists could reasonably be put into place. I'll make a merge request to use Spintax.
- StavrosK 10y agoIf you do, I would definitely be interested in that, Spintax seems like a very easy way to add some variation.
- TheCowboy 10y agoI wonder if one could circumvent this by making their initial response appear to come from another spammer to get 2 spammers talking to each other. It would also avoid problems with canned responses failing the Turing test.
