The apps don’t even need to think of spam, that would be handled by the mail server just like all other spam.

Who is “we” ? Imho HN isnt homogeneous or representative enough to constitute a “we” unless referring to YC companies. Its fit for certain kinds of discussion but pretty bad for others. I self censor my account heavily here, and in fact of
