Hi - Our site has recently been getting lots of "cold emails". I've read according to a Google search, they aren't considered "spam". And websites provide instructions and templates for people, on how to send cold emails. Or there are web sites that prove a service, to do it for them.Oh they most-certainly are spam and SA is pretty good at interdicting them too in my experience at least.
Most infuriating, is that cold emails send several follow up emails, if the people receiving the cold emails, don't respond! I've been trying routine add custom filters to block them. Although I keep having to adjust them every week. I'm wondering if anybody else has this problem. Thanks. - Mark
Bayes seems to get them most of the time, if you train it well. As more and more of this is AI-generated the "catch" rate goes up incidentally, as AI is, well, certainly artificial but not very intelligent :-)
