I've set up my filters to reply to all that's caught as SPAM, mostly to be
able to have them somewhat strict without risking that friends and/or work-
related e-mails are deleted without any warnings.
The goal is a riskfree system that is 100% invisible to me; and that's simple
enough to work as a user-installed system (not that I don't have enough access
to do it some other way, I just want it to be as "foolproof" as possible; so
that I can set it up for others without it breaking easily).
The question is if this might result in any longterm problems, like helping
innocent people getting mailbombed, ISPs that doesn't understand what's going
on, automagically getting blacklisted due to identical bodies being sent to a
lot of people and/or replying to a spammer using a spamtrapaddress as from...
Personally I'd say that this won't do any damage that wouldn't have happened
anyways, and that if any it will create an awareness about SPAM and what can be
done to battle it (I intend to include an URL to a how-to-do-it-yourself page);
but any and all comments are welcome...
