Hi guys, My colleague Daniel has published a blog post with great info to exactly that topic this week.. whoever is interested, please have a look: https://inboxplacement.com/2020/05/machine-clicks-in-email/
It’s not only tools following links, it’s mainly some well-known isps ;) Cheers, [signature_1395543467]<http://www.mapp.com/> Florian Vierke | Sr. Manager, Deliverability Services m: +49 1590 4236431 e: florian.vie...@mapp.com<mailto:florian.vie...@mapp.com> Follow us: [cid:image006.png@01D4B7E6.669D8F70] <https://www.linkedin.com/company/mapp-digital> [cid:image007.png@01D4B7E6.669D8F70] <https://twitter.com/Mapp_Digital> [cid:image008.png@01D4B7E6.669D8F70] <https://facebook.com/MappDigitalInternational> ________________________________ From: mailop <mailop-boun...@mailop.org> on behalf of Alexander Zeh via mailop <mailop@mailop.org> Sent: Tuesday, May 5, 2020 17:54 To: mailop@mailop.org <mailop@mailop.org> Subject: Re: [mailop] SendGrid Abuse unresponsive This email has reached Mapp via an external source Hi Andy, well.. there is software out there that does exactly that. Follow every single link. Sometimes multiple times even with a delay of hours. At least that’s what I am seeing. That stuff is pretty annoying. But you’re right, for abuse reports there should be a webform and some kind of captcha. I don’t agree with the unsubscribe mechanism though. As list-unsubscribe is supposed to be done by the mail client in the background without showing the result to the user, a captcha or something like that would defeat the purpose. But that’s already kind of solved with https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8058.

I’m not so sure about that, having in mind that the list-unsubscribe header already causes some headache on my end as some filters are checking and therefore „clicking“ all the URLs they find in body and header. At a minimum wouldn't such software already follow all links and confirm deliverability on behalf of the recipient every time they got marketing email? That seems like a bad idea to begin with, and also a bad idea from the web server side. All web contact forms already need some sort of "I am not a bot" detection because of software like that; you couldn't have some sort of "this is spam" web service that took a report solely based on a GET request, and sensible unsubscribe mechanisms don't work that way either.
