Interesting reply.
Instead of sending mass emails from one email, what if the script makes hundreds of new email addresses and then uses them to send a few emails out each.  500 email addresses * 5 emails = 2,500 emails sent.  Would that be detected, you think?





Spammers thought of this back in 1992 and it isn't going to work.

1. Yes, this would be detected.

2. The problem isn't the email "address". An email server lets you say your address is whatever you want. I could send an email from barackobama@whitehouse.gov as long as I were doing so from a legit email server, and it would probably arrive at its destination.

3. The problem is the email "provider", or email server. They aren't going to let you send mail through them. You could setup your own smtp server on your computer, but no one is going to accept mail coming from your consumer ISP modem's ip address.
