Are you suggesting to get a Gmail account, turn on the setting that makes Twitter email you notifications, mark tweets as spam in Gmail, and then use Google's spam detection as an existence proof of a solution if it's successful?
- mod 10y agoNo, he's saying people by-and-large can't defeat Gmail's spam detection. The same will likely happen at twitter.

So I don't think this is going to happen.
