Things that really grind my gears: - Business practices or industries that engender abuse (looking at you, payday loans) - Sheer volume of abuse - Ongoing abuse - Ignoring reports of abuse Things that don't really grind my gears: - One email that is clearly irritating, not yet definitively bulk, not clearly reported, and where it feels like the originating or responsible entity hasn't been given a chance to investigate or respond. My spamtraps are full of lots of things, and none of them are ActiveCampaign salespeople gone wild. Sales people sending cold emails irritate me. I get way too much of it at my new job. But it pretty much just about all lands in the spam folder, because their model of B2B trickle sending from Gmail or Outlook365 (or one of those crappy "cold email" sending platforms), trying to drum up leads and getting few responses results in low engagement and solid spam folder placement, that is darn near unfixable because of its flawed design as a practicel. It is, in short, not really an OPERATIONAL mail issue, and is darn near already addressed from the ISP/MBP filer/reputation perspective, from my view, so I typically wouldn't even wax poetic about it here on Mailop, personally.
