This broken link building thing has kind of gotten out of hand though. I run a popular website and I had to create a very complicated filter just to keep those hundreds of emails I get about some 10 year old link or look Google changed Adwords to just Ads type emails. Also the free guest post email. Just no. There has got to be a better way to build these links if that is so important for SEO. I think email spam will drop by 10% the day this happens.
