As pointed out in another response, the amplification factor of replays means that signup anti-spam systems which are 99% effective are not good enough; even manual review is imperfect at scale. All it takes is a single malicious account to get through review, and you can have millions of replays happening.
If possible, please add some numbers to the conversation.Does anyone have any idea how many millions of messages Google / Yahoo / Microsoft (individually or combined) send per say?
To me, it turns into a numbers game. Even if we get less than 0.1% slipping through, that's still a LOT of messages slipping through. 1,000,000,000 messages with 99.9% accuracy is still 1,000,000 unwanted messages.
Perhaps it's my ignorance, but I don't see us approaching, much less getting better than 99.9% accuracy. And let's be honest, in any other field, 99.9% accuracy is really good accuracy.
I do see more and more email being sent.So if we can't realistically improve accuracy, and the number of messages sent a day continues to grow, the number of unwanted messages is going to continue to grow.
