Not a flippant response:
Curious why this isn't the default mode of operation:
- Business sends spam
- Gmail users mark spam as spam
- Gmail starts putting all emails from business as spam for all Gmail users
- Business fails
- New businesses don't send spam
I can't imagine Gmail being in bed with spammers since Gmail gets paid when spammers pay Gmail to put spam on top of all your emails, not when spam is in your emails.
- tyingq 9y agoNew domains are cheap. You don't spam from mybiz.com You spam from mybizmail.com, mybizmarketing.com, mybizoffers.com, etc.
- xster 9y agoIs that really the problem though? Most of the junk that makes it into my mailbox are from real businesses that probably stands to go bankrupt if they had to change their domain name. But they all have to spam because that's what the market does now to win.
- tyingq 9y agoFacebook notifications come from facebookmail.com, CarMax spams from email-carmax.com. AT&T uses att-mail.com. And so on. They don't all do it, but many do. And if they burn their main domain, it's an easy option.
