Comment on Don't verify email addresses by sending spam to them

Comments

a botnet is not spam, garbage text is not spam, spam is defined primary by being unsolicited AND unwanted. This is solicited.

Don't confuse the map for the territory. What we see here is a so called "expert" in anti-spam technology completely losing site of the goal and complaining that world should conform to their system. This is learned helplessness masquerading as expertise.
